America stands for freedom. Our next president needs to stand up for it.

Women in many states can no longer make decisions about their own bodies – free of governmental coercion – after the former president’s Supreme Court appointees overturned Roe v. Wade. A national abortion ban is a real possibility.

Americans’ basic right to vote and have our votes count was dramatically jeopardized by Jan. 6, 2021’s violence at the Capitol. It’s being suppressed today by states’ political actions, including wholesale removal of people from voter lists.

I’m happy to vote for Kamala Harris, who is championing freedom. She will fight to defend reproductive freedom, veto any national abortion ban, and fight for passage of the Freedom to Vote Act.

Kamala Harris is the only candidate who will fulfill the presidential oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” and defend our freedoms.
