Kamala Harris to Highlight Jan. 6 Attack in Final Appeal to Voters"
WASHINGTON – Vice President Kamala Harris will address Americans on Tuesday with the White House as her backdrop, highlighting the events that transpired the last time Donald Trump held office. According to a senior Harris campaign official, Harris will remind voters of the U.S. Capitol stormed by thousands of Trump supporters in an attempt to overturn his election loss.
Harris will deliver her remarks at the Ellipse, the same location Trump spoke at before the Jan. 6 insurrection. In her speech, Harris will outline two distinct paths for voters on Election Day, her campaign says: one path focused on progress for the American people, and another rooted in grievances and retribution.
Harris will also renew her pledge to prioritize the country over party or personal interests. According to the senior campaign official, she will contrast this with Trump’s approach, claiming he would create an “enemies list” of those who oppose hiAd❤️
The race remains tight, with Harris and Trump statistically tied just a week before Election Day, and both campaigns battling for nearly every swing state.
Since stepping into her role as the Democratic nominee this summer, Harris has reintroduced herself to voters and outlined her policy plans, which she will further detail in her Tuesday speech. She has emphasized that Trump would restrict access to reproductive rights, a point she raised during a major rally in Houston with Beyonce on Friday, drawing an audience of 30,000, her largest rally to date.
Campaigning heavily in battleground states, Harris was in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Monday and plans to visit several key states throughout the week. In recent town halls and public statements, she has labeled Trump as a “fascist,” echoing his former White House chief of staff John Kelly, who stated Trump “falls into the general definition” of one.
While some Harris campaign surrogates have focused on core issues like abortion rights and the economy rather than labeling Trump, others have highlighted the high stakes for American democracy. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, speaking at a canvass launch in Waukesha, Wisconsin, underscored this sentiment, telling volunteers, “Everything we care about is under siege by a racist, misogynist, homophobic, xenophobic former president who wants to return to office.”
Pritzker went on to acknowledge that while democracy is at risk, many voters are also concerned with everyday issues such as economic stability, job opportunities, and their financial futures, which he stressed are central to the campaign’s message in the finargument
With Election Day approaching, Harris’s campaign has heightened its focus on framing Trump as a threat not only to democratic principles but also to key issues impacting voters’ daily lives. Harris’s speech on Tuesday will be one of her most significant to date, aiming to rally voters around a choice she describes as starkly different from past elections. Her message underscores a call to action for voters who prioritize progress on issues like economic stability, reproductive rights, and social equity.
In addition to her warnings about Trump, Harris will reiterate her vision for the future, highlighting her policy proposals that center on healthcare access, climate action, economic relief for working families, and protections for reproductive rights. These issues, her campaign argues, contrast with Trump’s policies, which they assert would undermine gains made over the past few years.
Harris’s approach has involved not only addressing major national concerns but also connecting with voters on a personal level, using her own story and values to bridge political divides. Her recent appearances have drawn significant attention, especially in states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, where her campaign sees critical opportunities to connect with undecided and independent voters.
During her recent Houston rally alongside Beyonce, Harris focused on women’s health and reproductive rights, an issue that her campaign views as a top concern for a significant portion of the electorate. By bringing high-profile allies and public figures into her campaign, she aims to reach audiences who may not typically engage deeply with political discussions.
In this last campaign push, Harris’s team has employed a blend of urgency and optimism, aiming to counter what they describe as Trump’s divisive tactics. She has positioned herself as someone who not only stands for traditional Democratic ideals but is also willing to work across the aisle to address urgent problems facing the nation. Her focus on reproductive rights, climate change, and economic security underscores her promise to prioritize these issues regardless of party politics.
Meanwhile, her campaign surrogates, including governors, senators, and local leaders, have mobilized grassroots efforts across battleground states. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, speaking in Wisconsin, highlighted the broader stakes of the election while reminding voters of the everyday concerns that impact them personally. He pointed out that, while democratic principles are at stake, voters are also deeply concerned with tangible outcomes, like job growth, wages, and healthcare access.
With only days remaining until the election, Harris's campaign is in high gear, balancing critiques of her opponent with a forward-looking agenda. As she continues her tour of battleground states, Harris’s campaign hopes to sway those still uncertain about which vision for the country aligns best with their own lives, values, and aspirations. Her message is clear: the choice on Election Day will have lasting implications for America’s future trajectory, impacting not only national policies but also the fabric of everyday life for millions of Americans.
