Vice President Kamala Harris just announced Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her presidential running mate!
Tim Walz has a nation-leading record of protecting abortion rights, holding corporations accountable, and putting families first. And we’re confident he will be a great choice for standing up to Donald Trump and J.D. Vance’s extreme, anti-choice agenda.
As president, Donald Trump overturned Roe v. Wade, which eliminated Americans’ constitutional right to abortion, established over 50 years ago, and opened the door for Republicans in states across the country to ban and criminalize access to abortion care. Since then, fourteen states have enacted near-total or total abortion bans, including Minnesota’s neighbors in Iowa, North Dakota, and South Dakota.
In 2022, Trump’s running mate, J.D. Vance, said that he “certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally.” Vance also indicated he would support a federal fetal personhood law that same year.
On the other hand, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz signed historic legislation protecting the fundamental right of every Minnesotan to make decisions about their reproductive health care and expanding access to abortion care. Governor Walz also signed the Reproductive Freedom Defense Act to ensure that patients traveling to Minnesota for abortion care and their providers are protected from legal attacks and criminal penalties from other states that have banned abortion.
Trump has a proven track record of putting corporations and CEOs over working families and enacting policies that mirror the goals of Project 2025. While corporations were making record profits during his presidency, Trump slashed the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, the lowest corporate tax rate in eighty years.
After slashing the corporate tax rate by two-fifths, Trump and conservatives promised companies would boost wages and jobs. Instead, corporations went on a massive stock-buyback spending spree, gave their executives huge bonuses, and kept worker wages flat.
As governor, Tim Walz signed essential legislation to hold large corporations accountable and protect Minnesotans from hidden, burdensome, and excessive junk fees. Tim Walz also took historic measures to prevent big pharmaceutical companies from price-gouging the cost of the prescription drugs that Minnesotans rely on.
