Vice President Kamala Harris will return to Iowa this week to discuss reproductive rights with local activists as a legal challenge to Iowa's six-week abortion ban moves through the courts.

The visit is intended to continue a conversation Harris started with local leaders in March when she held a roundtable at Grand View University.

"Iowa is on the front line" in the national fight for reproductive rights, she told them at the time.

Harris is scheduled to hold the moderated conversation in Des Moines on Friday — the same day that more than a dozen GOP presidential candidates are set to descend on the city for the Republican Party of Iowa's annual Lincoln Dinner.

Although Harris is attending the event in her official capacity as vice president, the visit provides the kind of contrast that Democrats are looking to create heading into the 2024 election.

As far as I can tell the story does not name the specific place that Harris will be appearing.

I am too far away to go, sure wish I could.
