Harris talks about reproductive care with Michigan doctors
Vice President Kamala Harris visited a local doctor’s office in Portage, Michigan, to spotlight reproductive rights before her rally in Kalamazoo on Saturday.
Harris gave remarks and heard from health care providers and medical students while there, thanking and noting that because of the Dobbs decision, America is in a "health care crisis."
Harris went on to ask questions of the attendees who shared their thoughts on a possible national abortion ban under former President Donald Trump.
"We represent not only a safety net for our region here in the Midwest, but over the last 18 months, we've seen an influx of patients that are coming, particularly from the south and the Southeast because of care deserts and already restrictive abortion bans," Dr. Ashley Sanderson said.

Biden woos union members at Pittsburgh events
President Joe Biden hit the campaign trail in Pittsburgh on Saturday and courted union members.
Speaking at a union get-out-the-vote event hosted by LiUNA (Laborers' International Union of North America), Biden made the pitch to members that this is the "most important election of our lifetime" and drew a stark contrast between former President Donald Trump's and Vice President Kamala Harris' stances on labor.
Biden sharply criticized Trump's stance on labor, saying that it's in the interest of labor unions to defeat him while also making the case that Harris has the back of middle-class Americans and union workers.
"He doesn't give a damn about union workers or any workers for that matter. He views unions as getting in the way of the accumulation of wealth for individuals," the president said.
Biden later went to the Allegheny County Labor Council Headquarters along with Sen. John Fetterman to greet and thank volunteers who were rallying.
The president walked in with pizza boxes for volunteers who clapped, kissed the hand of one volunteer and then took a selfie with another while Fetterman photobombed in the background.

Trump claims abortion has 'dropped way down' as an issue for voters
As Vice President Kamala Harris seeks to highlight abortion rights as a top issue this election, former President Donald Trump claimed Saturday that abortion is no longer front and center for voters.
In a new Truth Social post, Trump reiterated his abortion policy, suggesting the issue been left to the states.
"Abortion has dropped way down as an issue. States are already giving it to the PEOPLE to Vote, which is what everyone wanted," Trump posted ahead of his rally in Michigan.
Recent polls have shown that abortion and reproductive rights are among one of the key issues for voters.
A survey released by KFF earlier this month showed that abortion has emerged as the most important issue in the November election for women under 30.
