VP Kamala Harris to visit Savannah next week

Vice President Kamala Harris is expected to visit Savannah on Tuesday, according to a White House release.

The stop is the third leg of her “Fight for Reproductive Freedoms” tour. It is her 11th visit to Georgia since being sworn in, according to the release.

“The vice president will highlight the harm caused by extreme abortion bans and share stories of those who have been impacted in Georgia and across the country,” the release said. “She will also hold extremists accountable for proposing a national abortion ban, call on Congress to restore the protections of Roe v. Wade, and urge attendees to use their voices and stay engaged in the fight for fundamental freedoms.” Georgia’s six-week abortion ban went into effect after Roe v. Wade was overturned in June 2022.
