Julia Roberts stumped this week in support of Vice President Harris in the movie star’s home state of Georgia, one of the seven battleground states in the 2024 election, giving a speech in support of reproductive rights.
The Academy Award winner, who endorsed Harris in September, spoke during a Wednesday rally in Canton, urging the crowd to get more male voters in the campaign. She also spoke Thursday at an Atlanta event.
“I believe in Georgia. I wouldn’t have come home if I didn’t believe that we can accomplish really beautiful goals that will extend beyond our state’s borders,” Roberts said in Canton, according to Harper’s Bazaar . “I just hope that all the women here tonight talk to all the men that aren’t here tonight. And all you brave men who are here tonight, talk to all the other men who aren’t here tonight.”
Roberts, who was joined at the event by former Georgia state Rep. Stacey Abrams (D), pressed attendees to “talk to all the people” in their lives, no matter which party they are affiliated with.
