Harris responded to a ProPublica report on a 28-year-old woman’s abortion-related death in Georgia by saying that Trump is to blame for the state’s restrictive abortion laws. According to ProPublica, Amber Nicole Thurman died after she didn’t receive timely medical care to treat a rare complication after taking abortion pills.
NBC News has not independently verified the report. In response to a request for comment on Harris’ statement, Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement that the former president “has always supported exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother, which Georgia’s law provides.”
“With those exceptions in place, it’s unclear why doctors did not swiftly act to protect Amber Thurman’s life,” Leavitt said.
“This young mother should be alive, raising her son, and pursuing her dream of attending nursing school,” Harris said in a statement. She said the story is “exactly what we feared” when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022.
“In more than 20 states, Trump Abortion Bans are preventing doctors from providing basic medical care. Women are bleeding out in parking lots, turned away from emergency rooms, losing their ability to ever have children again,” Harris said. “Survivors of rape and incest are being told they cannot make decisions about what happens next to their bodies. And now women are dying. These are the consequences of Donald Trump’s actions.”
Harris warned that if Trump is elected, he would sign a national abortion ban “and these horrific realities will multiply.”
