Vice President Kamala Harris participated in an abortion rights event with actress Sophia Bush in San Jose, California. Harris denounced extremist-led laws targeting abortion rights, and stated that President Biden would veto a national abortion ban if passed by Congress. The event was disrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters demanding a ceasefire in Gaza, who accused Harris of hypocrisy for supporting reproductive rights while allegedly condoning the genocide of Palestinians. The issue of abortion is becoming a key focus in the reelection campaign of President Biden and Vice President Harris, with concerns raised about potential efforts to reinstate anti-choice policies from the Trump era.

An America where abortion is outlawed with zero exceptions is precisely what the hard-right wants. They want the freedom of choice to be extinct, period. Democrats will never stop fighting to protect a woman’s right to choose.
There is a reason extremist anti-abortion groups are squarely in Trump’s corner — they know that if reelected he intends to eliminate abortion and curtail reproductive rights in every state. With Trump as the Republican nominee, our fundamental freedom is at risk. https://t.co/jTuMJwNl4S
🚨JUST IN: Anti-abortion groups are laying out a plan for Trump, aiming to bypass Congress to restrict abortion, even in states where it remains legal. This November we must vote to protect our freedoms! https://t.co/ZLXcHiE7jg
Over 100 right-wing groups are developing a sweeping battle plan that maps out how Donald Trump could reinstate his anti-choice policies—and take some of them even further. https://t.co/TIK34bApdL
The anti-abortion right is already making plans to reinstate Donald Trump-era anti-choice policies President Joe Biden reversed upon entering office, Politico reports. https://t.co/lGzjQr3vqU

"If there's a national ban, look out California!" @KamalaHarris says some Republican leaders are trying to pass a national abortion ban, which could outlaw the procedure everywhere. We talk with @VP in San Jose while on her "fight for reproductive freedoms" tour. Via @FOXLA https://t.co/A9jsfnoBp8

Extremists in Congress are trying to outlaw abortion in every single state. Today, I was in California to make clear: If Congress passes a national abortion ban, President Biden will veto it. https://t.co/0Uf28QG3BP

Audience at @VP @KamalaHarris reproductive right event in San Jose chant “four more years!” To drown out a pro-#ceasefire demonstrator. This happened several times during Harris’ remarks https://t.co/tKxukTd7rw
