Vice President Kamala Harris appears to have purposefully avoided mentioning the right to life Sunday in an abortion speech as she referenced the Declaration of Independence.
Harris spoke in Tallahassee, Florida, on the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the monumental Supreme Court case overturned in June 2022.
“America is a promise,” Harris said. “It is a promise of freedom and liberty—not for some, but for all.”
“A promise,” she continued, “we made in the Declaration of Independence that we are each endowed with the right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
“Be clear,” Harris added. “These rights were not bestowed upon us. They belong to us as Americans.”
