Kamala leaves out 'life' from Declaration rights during abortion remarks trends now

Kamala Harris conveniently left out the right to 'life' part of the Declaration of Independence during her remarks pushing the administration's new plan to tackle abortion rights.

The vice president attacked Florida Governor Ron DeSantis from the ground in Tallahassee on Thursday with remarks announcing new nationwide protections for access to abortion pills and denounced the Sunshine State's new abortion laws.

Harris was deployed to Florida by the White House to commemorate what would have been the 50 year anniversary of the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling, which was overturned by the Supreme Court in June.

'We are here today because we collectively believe and know, America is a promise – it is a promise of freedom and liberty,' Harris said during 18-minute long remarks on Sunday.

'Not for some, but for all,' she insisted. 'A promise that we made in the Declaration of Independence that we are each endowed with the right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness.'

The vice president, however, did not directly quote the entire iconic portion of the U.S. Declaration, which states: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.'

It is no coincidence that Harris left out the right to 'life' in remarks pushing for a woman's right to decide whether she will carry her baby to term.

The March for Life convened thousands of anti-abortion advocates in Washington, D.C. on Saturday with celebrations of the first rally since the overturn of Roe v. Wade. Marchers held signs promoting their status as being part of the 'post-Roe generation.'

President Joe Biden went on the attack earlier Sunday against Republicans and the 6-3 conservative Supreme Court when issuing a presidential memorandum protecting access to the abortion pill.

Harris made the new directive official with her announcement in Tallahassee later in the afternoon.

The Supreme Court in June overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, issuing a ruling on Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization that stripped federal protections for abortion and gave the rights back to the states.

'Today, instead of commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision in Roe v. Wade, we are acknowledging that last year, the Supreme Court took away a constitutional right from the American people,' Biden wrote in a statement Sunday.

Several states immediately enacted new laws following the Supreme Court decision in June that restricted abortions rights – some states more radical than others.

In Florida, even before the Supreme Court decision, Governor DeSantis signed a bill making abortion in the state unlawful after 15 weeks. The only exceptions are if the procedure is necessary to save the life of the pregnant woman or prevent serious injury to the fetus.

It does not, however, allow exemptions in cases where pregnancies were caused by rape, incest or human trafficking.

Harris brought up this new law during her remarks, which drew sharp boos from the crowd gathered in Florida's capital.

'Here in Florida, healthcare providers face prison for up to five years for simply doing their job,' the vice president lamented. 'And now the state has also targeted medication abortion – and even threatened Florida pharmacists.'

'The government should not be telling people what to do with their own bodies,' Harris insisted.
