Kamala Harris has visited a Minnesota abortion clinic, the first time a US vice-president, or president, has ever visited such a facility, according to the White House.
She toured the Planned Parenthood site with its chief medical officer.
Speaking at the clinic, Ms Harris said she was there because the US was facing a “very serious health crisis”.
Her fellow Democrats are seeking to make abortion one of the defining issues of November’s US elections.
I’m glad she did this. So many people hate this places without knowing what they actually do.
She hasn’t been very vocal about anything the last 3+ years, but if she goes hard now, and specifically on abortion, really making national news, that would be pretty cool and I think effective.
This is performative like Obama’s ‘on day one’ speech to Planned Parenthood. Meaningless rhetoric with no action
