Vice President Kamala Harris will make a campaign stop in an unlikely state on Friday — Texas — to highlight the issue of abortion, according to a senior campaign official. 

At an event in Houston, the vice president will be joined by women who have been directly impacted by the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade two years ago and will deliver remarks highlighting the consequences of the ruling. 

Texas bans all abortions with the exception of when a mother’s life is at risk, the Harris team sees the state as a prime example of the impacts of the decision that ended the constitutional right to an abortion and sparked a wave of restrictions in states nationwide. 

Democratic Senate candidate Rep. Colin Allred, who is looking to oust two-term GOP Sen. Ted Cruz, will attend the Friday event as well, the campaign official added. Democrats are hoping that Allred, who has run close to Cruz in polling over the last few weeks, can pull off an upset in the Lone Star State in a year that features a tough map for retaining control of the Senate.  

While in Texas, Harris will also sit for an interview with podcaster Brene Brown, who has over five million followers on Instagram. 

Texas is not considered a battleground in this year’s presidential race but Democrats have looked to put a spotlight on the issue of abortion following Roe’s overturning as polls show a majority of Americans disagree with the decision. The Harris team has leaned into highlighting that the vice president’s GOP opponent, former President Donald Trump, appointed three of the justices who ruled in the majority in the Supreme Court decision reversing Roe. The Harris campaign and Democrats around the country have warned that a national abortion ban could be possible if Trump is given a second term. 

Trump has said he would not sign a national ban, but touted his role in overturning Roe and returning the issue of abortion to be regulated by individual states.
