• Kamala Harris criticizes Donald Trump's stance on women's rights and abortion, accusing him of influencing the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe vs Wade.
• Harris warns that Trump's re-election could lead to severe restrictions on reproductive rights and increased surveillance of women's pregnancies.

In the final stages of a fiercely contested presidential race, Democratic presidential candidate and US Vice President Kamala Harris has taken a firm stand against Republican candidate Donald Trump's views on women's rights and abortion. During a rally in Nevada, Harris underscored the Democratic Party's commitment to safeguarding personal freedoms, particularly a woman's right to make decisions about her own body without government interference.

Harris accused Trump of playing a pivotal role in the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe vs Wade, a landmark ruling that protected a woman's right to an abortion. She stated, When Donald Trump was President, he hand-picked three members of the US Supreme Court with the intention that they would do away with the protection of Roe vs Wade; they did as he intended. Now in America, one in three women lives in a state with a Trump Abortion Ban -- many with no exception for rape and incest, which is immoral.

Trump's Impact on Women's Rights

Harris's statement harks back to a historical event in 1973 when the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Roe in the Roe vs Wade case, establishing a woman's legal right to have an abortion. The decision has been a contentious issue in American politics ever since, with conservative politicians and activists seeking to overturn it.

Harris also referenced Trump's past remarks where he suggested that he would do what he wants whether women like it or not, arguing this demonstrates his lack of respect for women's autonomy. She warned that Trump's potential re-election could bring severe restrictions on reproductive rights, threatening access to birth control and IVF treatments and increasing surveillance of women's pregnancies.

The Future of Healthcare Under Trump

In addition to her criticism of Trump's stance on women's rights, Harris also warned of threats to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), commonly known as Obamacare, should Trump win. She pointed out that Trump's ally in Congress, the Speaker of the House, recently declared that there would be an 'End to Obamacare'. This would mean millions of Americans could lose their health insurance and insurance companies would regain the ability to deny people with pre-existing conditions.

Harris's comments come at a time when the future of the ACA is a focal point in the final days of the campaign, with a top GOP leader pledging to overhaul the program if Trump wins the presidency. Billions of dollars in tax credits are on the line, having been introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic to expand eligibility, make health insurance more affordable, and boost enrollment significantly.

As the election day looms on November 5, Harris and Trump are locked in a tight battle. The outcome of this election could have significant implications for women's rights and healthcare in the United States. The stakes are high, and the world watches as one of the most intense presidential races in recent history unfolds. The results of this election will undoubtedly have far-reaching implications for the future of women's rights and healthcare in the United States.
