JAKARTA - Presidential candidate who is also the incumbent Vice President of the United States from the Democratic Party Kamala Harris, immediately highlighted the right to freedom and highlighted the issue of abortion, in his first campaign with the vice presidential candidate Tim Walz.
Harris and Walz started their campaign at Temple University, Philadelphia.
Vice President Harris in his speech Tuesday argued that the American people were witnessing "full attacks on freedom and rights fought hard", pointing to his promise to perpetuate reproductive rights if he was elected.
"My team and I have a message for (former President Donald) Trump and other parties who want to turn back our fundamental freedom time: We will not come back," Harris said, quoted by CNN Aug. 7.
It was then followed by the audience by saying "not going back", such as Harris' first campaign at West Allis Central High School, the suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin after officially advancing as a presidential candidate.
Harris then praised Walz's record of abortion while serving as governor, saying the campaign was a "fight for freedom."
He lashed out at Trump and said, because of the actions of the former president, many states have banned abortion.
Walz himself has become an advocate for access to abortion, in January 2023 signing the Protect Reproductive Options (PRO) Act, which stipulates the right for people in the state to have an abortion after the US Supreme Court canceled Roe v. Wade the previous year.

In April 2023, he signed a law that protects people who travel to Minnesota for abortion, and doctors who provide abortion treatment, from criminal penalties from other states.
Harris vowed to sign a bill to "restore reproductive freedom," and promised to sign it into law.
