After GOP snub, pro-life advocates re-energized by Kamala Harris, who they can label 'extremist'

Pro-life advocates are re-energized by the Democrat’s new likely nominee-to-be, who they feel they can successfully paint as 'the extremist she is' on the issue of abortion.

But a new memo obtained by Fox News Digital reveals that pro-life advocates are ready to coalesce around a new objective – painting Harris as an abortion "extremist" who "can’t name any limits on abortion she supports."

In a memo sent Tuesday to GOP candidates, leadership and officeholders and state leaders from SBA Pro-Life America, one of the leading advocacy groups in the country, SBA claims, "Everyone expected abortion to be a major issue in the 2024 elections, but it now intensifies with Kamala Harris at the top of the ticket." 

The memo contrasts President Biden, an Irish Catholic who "could barely utter the word abortion and for decades supported at least some basic limits, such as limits on taxpayer-funded abortions" with Harris, SBA says, "shouts abortion – and has not once voted or voiced support for ANY limits on abortion." 

"Harris is so committed to abortion that she can’t see anything else, including the developmental stages of children before birth or the real needs of women," the memo states. 

The memo points to then-Sen. Harris, who voted two times against a limit on abortions at 20 weeks with exceptions, "well after science shows unborn babies can feel pain – calling it an ‘immoral’ bill."

"Harris is a stooge for Big Abortion, so much so that she even voted against legislation that called for providing health care to babies born alive from failed abortions, making it easier to paint her as the extremist she is," the source said.

Another pro-life activist told Fox that with Harris as the new presidential candidate, it "should force Trump and JD Vance to lean in on this issue" to "show moderates just how radical Kamala is – abortion on demand at any time and for any reason."
