Kamala Harris to speak at Essence Festival, expected to discuss Roe overturn
Vice President Kamala Harris will travel to New Orleans on Saturday to take part in the Essence Festival of Culture.
The Supreme Court on June 24 overturned the landmark ruling that legalized abortion access nationwide for the past five decades. Harris also said the decision could impact other privacy rights, including precedent on contraception and same-sex marriage. President Joe Biden met with Democratic governors on Friday to discuss additional efforts to safeguard reproductive care and women's rights.
"You have the power to elect leaders who will defend and protect your rights," Harris said last week.
