Tim Walz speaks out about abortion during final campaign rally with Michigan voters

Tim Walz spoke about abortion rights to cap his final campaign rally before Election Day during a barely five-minute speech to Michigan voters Monday night.

At a star-studded campaign rally at Hart Plaza in downtown Detroit on the eve of Election Day, which included a performance by Jon Bon Jovi and others, Walz told rally attendees that he wanted to talk to them about “a particular topic.”

“Everything is at stake,” Walz began in his brief speech from downtown Detroit. “But I want to take advantage of tonight to talk about one issue in particular that really underscores what’s at stake in this election. So let me talk to the guys in the crowd tonight. I want you to think about the women in your life that you love. Their lives are at stake in this election,” Walz continued, before criticizing Trump for appointing “Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe v. Wade.”

“And he brags about it,” Walz added. “She’s glad that those women you think about and love have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers.”

Walz lamented that women were allegedly kicked out of emergency rooms and forced to suffer miscarriages in the parking lot, blaming Trump and the work he did to repeal federal abortion protections. Walz also blamed Trump for rape victims having to carry unwanted pregnancies to term. Such claims by Walz—that state abortion laws have led to the deaths of pregnant women—previously earned him criticism on the campaign trail from OB-GYNS, who reported Walz for claiming a Georgia woman had died over the state’s abortion laws during a debate with his opponent, Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio.

“When Congress passes that bill to restore reproductive freedom, President Harris will sign it into law,” Walz said. “Kamala and I trust women. It’s that simple.”

Walz did not address any other political issues during his barely five-minute speech, preceded by his wife, Gwen, and Michigan’s Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer. Earlier in the day, Walz campaigned in several places in Wisconsin, including Milwaukee.

“Here’s the deal, folks, there will be a day when you’ll be sitting in that rocking chair, and you’ll be rocking on that porch, and some little guy will come home from school and ask, ‘What did you do in the 2024 election?'” , Walz concluded at his last rally before election day. “And you will be able to answer: ‘Everything I could.'”
