Kamala Harris Slams Donald Trump’s Plan for National Abortion Ban
Washington, D.C. –Vice President Kamala Harris has taken a strong stance against Donald Trump’s proposed national abortion ban, which she claims would significantly harm women’s rights across the United States. In a tweet posted earlier today, Harris criticized the former president’s plan, which includes the creation of a national anti-abortion coordinator. The plan, outlined in a document titled Project 2025, is viewed as a key component of Trump’s potential second-term agenda if he is re-elected.
“If elected, Donald Trump intends to sign a national abortion ban, and create a national anti-abortion coordinator. They even put their plan in writing: Project 2025,” Harris tweeted. She didn’t hold back in her criticism, adding, “They are out of their minds.”

Trump’s Project 2025 has been the focus of intense debate, as it outlines a comprehensive effort to impose strict abortion laws at the federal level, overriding state legislation. The plan has received praise from anti-abortion advocates but has faced fierce opposition from pro-choice supporters, who view it as an assault on reproductive freedom.
Harris, a long-time defender of abortion rights, has consistently championed women’s access to healthcare and reproductive services. As the 2024 presidential election approaches, the issue of abortion has become one of the most contentious topics on the campaign trail, with Democrats like Harris positioning themselves as protectors of women’s rights in the face of conservative efforts to restrict access to abortion.
The Vice President’s comments come as abortion rights activists rally support for maintaining access to safe and legal abortion services across the country. Many worry that a Trump administration, bolstered by Republican majorities in Congress, could succeed in implementing a nationwide ban, rolling back decades of progress on women’s reproductive rights.
As the political landscape intensifies ahead of the 2024 election, Kamala Harris’s criticism is likely to resonate with voters who see the right to choose as a fundamental issue at the ballot box.
