REPRO Rising Virginia Endorses Vice President Kamala Harris for President and Governor Tim Walz for Vice President

REPRO Rising Virginia PAC is proud to announce its endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris for President of the United States, and her vice-presidential running mate, Governor Tim Walz. This is REPRO Rising Virginia PAC’s first presidential campaign endorsement and the only Virginia state-based reproductive rights organization to step into the presidential arena this year. In this historic moment, the endorsement of this historic ticket reflects our efforts to support our unwavering goal: the protection and expansion of reproductive freedom and healthcare, including abortion, for every Virginian. We believe this team has what it takes to lead the charge in expanding access to reproductive healthcare nationwide.

“We are so proud that our first presidential campaign endorsement is for an unwavering, unapologetic candidate who is a fierce voice and fighter for reproductive freedom. Vice President Kamala Harris has shown up as an unwavering advocate for reproductive freedom throughout her career, and we know that she will continue to move the ball forward in ways that matter,” says Tarina Keene, Executive Director of REPRO Rising Virginia. “Serving as the first Black female Vice President, Harris has already broken barriers and redefined what leadership can look like.  She is also the first Vice President to ever visit an abortion provider, proving she intimately understands the daily struggle medical providers and patients face when it comes to accessing legal abortion care in this country. She is the undeniable choice for this crucial election. Alongside Gov. Walz, who has centered abortion rights and access in Minnesota and made extraordinary gains, there is no doubt this team will prioritize the rights of individuals to make decisions about their bodies, lives, and futures.” 

This race is about more than the next presidential candidate; it’s about electing leadership that will prioritize the protection of our most fundamental human rights. Across the country, we have seen mounting restrictions that are causing incredible harm to people who need basic healthcare. It is critical that our country is led by people who will protect and defend the right to control our own bodies and understand what is at stake in a post-Roe America. Harris and Walz are accomplished leaders and the best candidates for the job. We know they will continue to fight for reproductive freedom until our rights and access to abortion care are restored.
