Doug Emhoff, Gwen Walz champion reproductive freedom at Raleigh event

Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff and Minnesota First Lady Gwen Walz visited Raleigh to voice their support for reproductive rights at a campaign event on Monday.

It was the second stop of their “Fighting for Reproductive Freedom” bus tour in North Carolina, which also featured an event in Asheville on Sunday. The pair are campaigning on behalf of their spouses on the Democratic ticket: Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.

The bus tour is making at least 50 stops in key states to highlight the difference in the stances of Harris and former President Donald Trump on reproductive rights, according to the Harris-Walz campaign.

“A minority of extremists are making decisions for the majority of us that they know none of us want, and it’s causing actual damage,” Emhoff said. “I want everyone to stay mad about these issues and channel that anger at the ballot box.”
