Harris Ties Trump to the Fatal Fallout of Abortion Bans
Briefly

The advertisement opens with the heart-shaped headstone of Amber Nicole Thurman, a 28-year-old woman from Georgia who died of sepsis in 2022 after delayed medical care to treat a medication abortion. It then cuts to her mother, Shanette Williams, bending over her daughter's grave, shaking her head as if still in disbelief.
As Ms. Williams emphatically asserts that her daughter was gone because of what Donald Trump did, the advertisement cuts to a clip of the former president boasting at a town-hall event that he was proud to have helped overturn Roe v. Wade after his party had tried and failed for decades.
Ms. Williams declares her endorsement of Ms. Harris, and the advertisement shows images of Ms. Harris sitting with the family backstage at a town hall hosted by Oprah Winfrey, holding what appears to be Ms. Thurman's obituary. Another image shows Ms. Harris clutching Ms. Williams's hands.
Next comes a clip of Ms. Harris leading a crowd at a campaign event in saying Ms. Thurman's full name, and then another image of Ms. Harris and Ms. Williams hugging.
