Former President Donald Trump and pro-life advocates are using Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris's support for unrestricted abortion as a rallying cry to mobilize voters and expose her alleged extremism on the issue.
Pro-life advocates, who were initially concerned about the Republican National Convention's (RNC) softened stance on abortion, have found renewed vigor in their efforts to oppose Democrat Kamala Harris, whose extreme views on abortion they believe can be exploited to galvanize voters.

The Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade has sparked a political debate over abortion access, with Democrats seizing the opportunity to blame Republicans for the decision. The RNC recently revised its platform to appeal to a broader audience, removing language calling for a nationwide abortion ban.
Despite this change, pro-life groups have remained supportive of the Republican ticket, believing that a Republican administration would still prioritize protecting unborn babies and pregnant mothers. However, a recent memo from SBA Pro-Life America, a leading advocacy group, reveals that activists are now focused on painting Harris as an "abortion extremist."

The memo highlights Harris's consistent opposition to any limits on abortion, including measures to protect unborn babies who can feel pain and babies who survive failed abortions. It also points to her support for legislation forcing pregnancy resource centers to advertise for abortion clinics.
Pro-life advocates believe that Harris's extreme abortion stance will galvanize pro-life voters and help paint her as a radical supporter of Big Abortion. They argue that Harris's views are out of step with the majority of Americans and will drive moderate voters towards Republicans who support reasonable limits on abortion.

Some pro-life activists believe that Harris's nomination should force Republicans, including former President Trump and Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance, to take a more confrontational approach to the abortion issue. They argue that Republicans need to show moderates how extreme Harris's position is to appeal to their support.
The upcoming election cycle is expected to see abortion play a prominent role in the political discourse, with pro-life advocates determined to use Harris's abortion record to mobilize voters and expose her as an extremist.
