Vice President Harris Addresses Pro-Life Protesters in Wisconsin

Vice President Kamala Harris addressed a group of pro-life protesters during a campaign rally in Wisconsin on Thursday, making a pointed remark about their presence. The event, which focused on expanding abortion rights, saw Harris advocate for women’s autonomy over their reproductive decisions. Harris stated, “We will move forward because ours is a fight for the future, and it is a fight for freedom — for freedom. Like the fundamental freedom of a woman to make decisions about her own body and not have her government tell her what to do.”

When confronted by pro-life protesters, Harris told them, “Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally,” while smiling as she suggested they intended to join a different event, implying one of former President Donald Trump‘s rallies. Her comment was met with cheers from attendees. The remark also sparked discussions online, with many speculating about the motivations of the protesters.

Harris’s appearance in Wisconsin came shortly before she decided to skip the 79th annual Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner in New York City, a significant charitable event supporting women and children. Historically, this dinner has been a key aspect of the U.S. election cycle, often serving as a venue for political figures to engage in light-hearted banter.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump and his wife, Melania Trump, alongside Archbishop of New York Timothy M. Dolan, were in attendance at the event Harris missed. The Vice President’s absence marked the first time since Walter Mondale in 1984 that a major-party presidential contender skipped the dinner.

Kamala Harris, currently a Democratic presidential nominee, continues to make headlines during her campaign trail, where she consistently emphasizes her commitment to upholding abortion rights amidst a contested political landscape. Fox News Digital has sought additional comments from Harris’s campaign regarding her interactions with the protesters and her decision to miss the New York event.
