Vice President Kamala Harris will be in Dallas on Tuesday to raise money for the 2024 presidential campaign and appear on a talk show to discuss abortion rights.
Harris will be attending a closed-door donor event that is taking place at 5:30 p.m., according to The Dallas Morning News. Although Harris is in the area, she has no public appearances scheduled while in the metroplex.
The vice president will also appear on The ReidOut, a talk show hosted by cable television host and political commentator Joy Reid. The interview takes place nearly one year after the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade on June 24, 2022.
During the show, Reid will be asking Vice President Harris about the abortion landscape one year after the Supreme Court decision, and they will talk about “what a path to federal protections could look like & why abortion rights will define the 2024 election & beyond,” per a Twitter post from the talk show.
The appearance was pre-recorded at 3:15 p.m. and will be released at 6 p.m. CDT on Tuesday.
The vice president’s visit to Dallas is part of a fundraising campaign for Team Biden. President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, First Lady Jill Biden, and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff are all making stops in wealthy neighborhoods across the U.S., per the Daily Mail.
President Biden is expected to make appearances in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, and Maryland, while Vice President Harris will make stops in Dallas and Denver, the Daily Mail reported.
First Lady Jill Biden will fundraise in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, while Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff will appear in Aspen, per the Daily Mail.
The trips are significant since the second quarter fundraising deadline is approaching on June 30, after which each candidate must provide details regarding how much they have raised. Biden-Harris campaign manager Julie Rodriguez told the Daily Mail that the campaign is in a good position financially.
“Combined with our robust grassroots fundraising network, never before has a campaign had more powerful fundraising tools with a longer runway, and with freedom and democracy on the line in this election — we intend to use them,” said Rodriguez, per the Daily Mail.
