Harris-Walz Centers Reproductive Choice

Reproductive choice is on the ballot in 2024, and Vice President Kamala Harris is making it a central issue in her presidential campaign. Harris has been on the front lines of this fight, and since the start of 2024, she's been crisscrossing the country on a reproductive freedoms tour, emphasizing personal stories of people impacted by abortion bans. Meanwhile, Republicans have attempted to avoid this issue with equal enthusiasm. To learn more about the role that reproductive choice could play in this election, we spoke with reporter Abigail Tracy.  And in headlines: Taylor Swift concerts in Austria canceled following terrorist threat, the one-year anniversary of the Maui wildfires disaster, one of Arizona's phony 2020 electors pleads guilty, and American figure skaters finally collect their 2022 gold medals.   Show Notes:Check out Abigail's story and subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/23x2jhv3What A Day – YouTube – <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast</a>Follow us on Instagram – <a href="https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/</a>For a transcript of this episode, please visit <a href="http://crooked.com/whataday" target="_blank">crooked.com/whataday</a>
