The "Fighting for Reproductive Freedom" national bus tour is coming to Nevada as it travels across battleground states in the election's final weeks. The bus carrying Gwen Walz and actress Jennifer Garner is expected to stop in Reno on Saturday morning and then Carson City after.Â
The bus is making 60 stops nationwide in both red and blue communities - to make its case against Donald Trump and J.D. Vance's record on reproductive rights and connection to Project 2025.
They say that Project 2025 details plans that would use the federal government to restrict reproductive freedom from women nationwide, including banning abortion, restricting access to contraceptives, and prosecuting healthcare providers.
According to the American non-partisan research organization, the Public Religion Research Institute PRRI 2024 American Values Atlas - which drew data from more than 100-thousand phone interviews nationwide - 76 percent of Nevadans support abortion access, and 2 percent of Nevadans oppose abortion in all cases.
Harris-Walz Campaign Statement:
"This election is about freedom – and the American people want and deserve the freedom to make their own health care decisions. Our campaign is hitting the road to meet voters in their communities, underscore the stakes of this election for reproductive freedom, and present them with the Harris-Walz ticket's vision to move our country forward, which stands in stark contrast to Donald Trump's plans to drag us back. As we crisscross the country, we are driving that contrast home to red and blue voters and independents. The 'Fighting for Reproductive Freedom' bus tour will drive home for voters that this threat to our fundamental freedoms touches every American."
-Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Harris-Walz Campaign Manager
Trump-Vance Campaign Statements:
"President Trump has long been consistent in supporting the rights of states to make decisions on abortion and has been very clear that he will NOT sign a federal ban when he is back in the White House. President Trump also supports universal access to contraception and IVF. Contrarily, Kamala Harris and the Democrats are radically out of touch with the majority of Americans in their support for abortion up until birth and forcing taxpayers to fund it."
-Karoline Leavitt, Trump-Vance Campaign National Press Secretary
"Since the Fall of 2023, President Trump's campaign made it clear that only President Trump and the campaign, NOT any other organization or former staff, represent policies for the second term. President Trump personally led the effort to establish 20 promises made to the forgotten men and women across our nation, as well as RNC Platform -- these are the only policies endorsed by President Trump for a second term. Dangerously liberal Kamala Harris and the DNC are LYING and fear-mongering because they have NOTHING else to offer the American people. Remember, these are the same people that lied to Americans and hid Joe Biden's cognitive decline all these years and are currently lying about Kamala Harris serving as the border czar, being responsible for out-of-control inflation, and failure across on every front."
- Danielle Alvarez, Trump-Vance Campaign Senior Advisor
