MILWAUKEE — Stand Up America’s Executive Director, Christina Harvey, responded to Donald Trump’s remarks during the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee:

“What we witnessed tonight were just empty words. This is the same twice-impeached, convicted felon who botched the COVID response, repeatedly tried to take health care away from millions of Americans, incited an insurrection to cling to power after voters rejected him, and to this day brags about appointing the justices that ‘killed’ Roe v. Wade.

“Let’s be clear – Trump hasn’t changed. He’s only gotten more extreme. If elected, he will enact the radical Project 2025 plan that allows employers to stop paying overtime, takes away health protections for preexisting conditions, and lets the government monitor Americans’ pregnancies to potentially prosecute them if they miscarry.

“The damage of a second Trump term won’t just last for four years. Trump would appoint more MAGA justices to the Supreme Court who will continue eroding our freedoms for decades.

“We must vote this November to keep Trump out of the Oval Office and protect our democracy and fundamental freedoms.”
