LIVE: Harris delivers remarks at North Carolina rally

I know the challenges that Americans and working people and families are having right now in terms of affordable housing and we need to build more housing in America so part of my plan part of my vision for an opportunity economy is we are going to cut red tape and work with the private sector to build 3 million new homes by the end of my first term and I have a plan to lower the cost of living for America's families on everything from Health Care to groceries including taking on price gouging and those corporations when they take advantage of people in need under my plan more than 100 million Americans will get tax cut thousands of dollars of your hard earned money will go back in your pockets including $6,000 during the first year of a child's life for young parents knowing in that critical stage of your child's development you might need a little help not just to get by but to get ahead and I will always put the middle class and Working Families First I know where I came from I know where I came from I'm clear about that now Donald Trump well he has a different plan just Google project 2025 I see you have it is a detailed and dangerous blueprint for what he will do if he is elected president Donald Trump will give billionaires massive Cuts massive tax cuts and cut corporate taxes by over a trillion dollars even as they pull down record profits he intends to cut Social Security and Medicare and he wants to impose what I call a trump sales tax on everyday basic necessities which will cost the average American family nearly $4,000 a year some of the top economists in our country and in the world have reviewed these plans Goldman Sachs for example has said that my plan would grow our economy and his plan would shrink the economy that his plan would reignite inflation and send us into a recession by the middle of next year on top of this on top of this Donald Trump intends to end the Affordable Care Act now think about that think about that think we remember what it meant when Insurance Company could deny you for a pre-existing condition remember what that was so he wants to get rid of it and as he said in the debate he made clear he has no plan to replace it in fact you remember concept you remember he has quote concepts of a plan concepts of a plan I mean we're 54 days from this election concepts of a plan which means no actual plan which means no actual plan and 45 million Americans are insured through the Affordable Care Act so understand what that means he's going to end it based on a concept and take us back when folks were suffering well we're not going back we are not going back we are not we're not going back no we're not going back no we we together we'll move forward because ours is a fight for the future and and ours is a fight for Freedom like the fundamental freedom of a woman to be able to make decisions about her own body and not have her government tell her what to do and we remember how we got here Donald Trump hand selected three members of the United States Supreme Court with the intention with the intention that they would undo the protections of roie Wade with the intention they would undo the protections and they did exactly as he intended and now more than 20 states have a trump abortion ban including North Carolina and every single state in the South except Virginia many with no exceptions even for rape and incest it is immoral immoral and I know everyone here understands let us agree one does not have to abandon their Faith or deeply held beliefs to agree the government should not be telling her what to do with her body come on come on and when and when he was asked on Tuesday night Donald Trump refused to say that he would veto a national abortion ban well well when Congress passes a bill to restore reproductive Freedom as president of the United States I will proudly sign it into law proudly sign it into law we are not playing around and across our nation we are witnessing a full-on attack on hard fought hard one fundamental rights and freedoms like the freedom to vote the freedom to be safe from gun violence the freedom to breathe clean air and drink clean water and the freedom to love who you love openly and with [Applause] pride and here's the thing that I know about all of the North Carolinian leaders who are here you know this so well it's part of your DNA generations of Americans before us led the fight for Freedom Generations of Americans before us many from right here led the fight for Freedom let's get a medic let's get a medic let's get a medic do we have a medic get no let's get a medic over there please let's get a medic over there yeah but let's make sure see see see this is who we are we look out for each other that's what leaders do looking out for each other okay we've got a medic okay so generations of Americans before us led the fight for freedom and now the Baton is in our hands the Baton is now in our hands and we who believe then in the sacred freedom to vote will finally passed the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and the freedom to vote act and we who believe in the freedom to live safe from gun violence will finally pass an assault weapons ban Universal background checks and red flag laws so much is on the line in this election and we got this we got this but look but look here's the thing this is not 2016 or 2020 the stakes are even higher because two months ago the United States Supreme Court basically told the former president that he will effectively be immune no matter what he does in the the White House well well well here's the thing the courts will take care of that let's take care of November how about that all [Applause] right but imagine imagine what that Court ruling means imagine what that means cuz before there might have been at least the the the belief that there would be the threat of consequence but now there's an explicit ruling from the court that suggests he would be immune imagine Donald Trump with no guard rails imagine what that would look like he who has vowed if reelected he will be a dictator on day one he who called for the quote termination of the Constitution of the United States and let us be very clear someone who suggests that we should terminate the Constitution of the United States should never again stand behind the Seal of the president of the United States never again never again never and put that all in the context of people who have been talking about how he was when they served with him in the White House people who saw him every day his National Security advisor his defense secretary his chief of staff and his vice president all all of whom have WN warned America Donald Trump is not fit to be president of the United [Applause] States and to never occupy our nation's highest office again so North Carolina I believe it all comes down to this we are here together we are here together because we love our country we love our country and we together understand the awesome responsibility that comes with the greatest privilege on Earth the privilege and pride of being an American it's an awesome responsibility that's right that's right that's right that's right right and I do believe I do believe it is the highest form of patriotism to fight for the ideals of our country and to fight to realize the promise of America and so North Carolina we have 54 days until election day 54 days until election day and just 35 days until early voting begins and it's not only the presidency that's on the ballot there are many many important races like Josh Stein running for governor who whose opponent whose opponent was handpicked by Donald Trump because he wants a total ban on abortion in this state and that is just one of the many Stakes that are at playing this election but see we know the power is with the people the power is with the people your voice is your vote North Carolina and you are going to make all the difference in the outcome of this race and look we know ours will be a very tight race until the very end we are the underdog let's be clear about that we are the underdog and so we have hard work ahead of us but we like hard work hard work is good work hard work is good work and with your help we will win we will win and so I ask you today North Carolina are you ready to make your voice is heard do we believe in Freedom do we believe in Opportunity do we believe in the promise of America and are we ready to fight for it and when we fight we win there you go God bless you and God bless [Applause] [Music] America I keep qu [Music] now [Music]
