During a campaign stop in Las Vegas on Monday, Vice President Kamala Harris will promote Nevada's ballot measure to enshrine abortion access in the state constitution.
The Biden-Harris campaign will help collect signatures for the ballot initiative, a Biden-Harris campaign official told CBS News. In Nevada, the initiative is being led by Nevadans for Reproductive Freedom political action committee. If enough signatures are obtained, Nevadans will get to vote during the general election on enshrining abortion access for up to 24 weeks in the state's constitution.
According to the campaign official, Vice President Harris will encourage Nevada voters to support the efforts, as they are "an important step to protect against extremist state lawmakers who may try to adopt another 'Trump abortion ban' in the future.'"
