Beshear: 'Trump and Vance simply don't believe in your freedom'
Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, a one-time potential running mate for Harris, largely focused on reproductive rights during his remarks.
He called on voters to elect Harris and Walz to "protect reproductive freedom" and said that "Trump and Vance simply don't believe in your freedom."

"Trump says people are absolutely thrilled that women had their basic rights eliminated. JD Vance says women should stay in violent marriages, and that pregnancies resulting from rape are simply inconvenient," Beshear said. "Their policies give rapists more rights than their victims. That's not inconvenient. It's just plain wrong."
He called on Americans to move beyond divisive politics "by remembering we are all Americans."
"That's how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris lead," he said.
