Planned Parenthood, pro-abortion rights groups cheer on Harris

Planned Parenthood and other pro-abortion rights groups are cheering on Vice President Kamala Harris, saying she will "fight like hell" for abortion rights. Harris has led the charge under Biden's presidency with abortion rights, a major issue in the 2024 election.

"As we have navigated this public health crisis, Vice President Harris has kept the needs and experiences of patients and providers front and center. She’s the first Vice President to visit a Planned Parenthood health center -- and we know that she will continue to fight like hell to rebuild a fundamental right that was stripped away," Planned Parenthood said in a statement Sunday.

"President Biden and Vice President Harris’ record when it comes to protecting our reproductive freedoms and abortion access is unquestionable -- these last two years, they have been the strongest, steadiest voice in the post-Dobbs storm," Planned Parenthood said.
