(Radio Iowa) – Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s vice presidential nominee, told an online audience of Iowa Democrats that the outcome of the 2020 election will affect every part of our lives. “The future of health care hangs on top of it all because President Trump is in the Supreme Court right now, trying to get rid of the Affordable Care Act,” Harris said. Harris was the closing speaker during the Iowa Democratic Party’s annual fall fundraiser last (Sunday) night. It was held online this year because of the pandemic. In her recorded message, Harris called President Trump’s approach to Covid wreckless.

“This is the greatest failure of any American presidency and make no mistake, his failure to contain this virus has what has wreaked havoc on our economy,” Harris says. “Of course he’s not alone. Trump’s Republican Party has followed his lead, including many here in Iowa.” Harris, a California Senator, promised a Biden Administration would invest in the nation’s infrastructure and take action on rural issues. “We’ll reverse the disastrous trade war that has hurt our farmers,” Harris said, “and we’ll stand with our corn growers and bolster the ethanol industry.”

Iowa Democrats featured a “battleground beverates tour” during the fundraiser, with virtual “stops” in each congressional district. Recipes came from the Town Square Coffee House in Orange City, the Primrose in Corning, the Atlantic and Pacific Club in Knoxville and Vivian’s Soul Food in Cedar Rapids.
