Governor, the fans accused you of stolen valor.
They respond.
Governor.
Governor, the fans accused you of stolen valor.
You're going to try again?
Governor, you've got to go over.
I've got to go over.
Governor.
Fans accused you of stolen valor.
You're response.
Rope line, here we come.
Wait, no, okay, that's not the Rope line.
We've got four press fans.
The first two are for the pool.
All right.
This is the first one.
I think this will be us.
This is the first one.
I think this will be us.
This is a press one.
This is a little bit of a bump.
Yeah.
We're on the front row.
We'll make it work.
We've got an extra band.
We're going to go over.
We're all over.
Where are you going?
We've got to go back.
No, we've got to go back.
Sorry.
All right, now go.
Go ahead.
All right, can you three in the front?
Yep, yep.
Great.
It's not the best vehicle to have, but good work.
That's the man's walking towards us, by the way.
Huh?
That group of people walking with fans.
Oh, nice.
Is that so?
That's good for you.
All right.
All, right.
All right.
will work to enact a national abortion ban.
As running mate, J.D. Vance said he'd like abortion
to be, quote, illegal nationally.
Well, I think Wisconsin women will have something to say about that.
Women here in Wisconsin already spent a year experiencing
what it is like to live in a state that bans nearly all abortions,
even in cases of rape and incest.
And you know what we're going to tell Donald Trump, J.D. Vance,
and the Republicans up and down the ballot on November 5th, which is my birthday,
we are not going back!
We're not going back!
Wisconsin, Wisconsin, this November, the people have the power,
and we have the choice.
We have the choice between those who want more for themselves
and Kamala and Tim who want better for all of us.
We have a choice between those who want to conquer
by dividing and people who will build by unifying.
We have a choice between those who want to turn back the past
and people who want to go forward to a better future.
Folks, we have 90 days Wisconsin.
Let's make them count. Let's get to work.
Let's go win this damn thing! Let's win!
Thank you!
Please welcome United States Senator, Tammy Baldwin.
Hello, Wisconsin!
I am so proud to be here today.
Today, as we stand here, we mark a new beginning
for our party and our country as we welcome
our presidential nominee, Kamala Harris, back to our state.
Now, as California Attorney General,
Kamala Harris was the top prosecutor for the largest state in the nation,
standing up for the rule of law and taking on perpetrators
of all kinds, which is exactly the kind of experience
that will come in handy at a moment like this.
As a United States Senator, I was always riveted to watch her
on the Judiciary Committee hold the powerful to account.
And as Vice President, she fought fervently
to restore reproductive freedom after the Supreme Court
overturned Roe.
I am so proud to support Kamala
for President of the United States.
So I also want to recognize the next Vice President
of the United States, Governor Tim Walls.
You know, as a military veteran, a teacher,
and a true public servant,
he is a fantastic addition to the Democratic ticket.
Now, when he and I
served in the House of Representatives together, we worked together
to stand up for our dairy farmers.
And while serving as Governor of our neighboring
state Minnesota, we worked together to bring one billion
dollars for a new bridge in Superior, Wisconsin
that will connect our two states,
create jobs, bolster our economy, and make sure our families
can get to work on time.
In picking a fellow Midwesterner, it is clear that this campaign
knows that the path to the presidency and to control
of the United States Senate runs directly through the Midwest.
And that means
it runs directly through Wisconsin
because we are the battleground state.
Wisconsin is likely to decide
who our next president is and who controls the United States
Senate. And Wisconsin, speaking of
that U.S. Senate seat, I'm
being challenged by a self-funding multi-millionaire by the name
of Eric Hubdie.
Hubdie owns a three billion dollar California
bank, a seven million dollar ocean view
home in Laguna Beach, and he's been named one of
the influential residents of Orange County three years
in a row.
Folks, we have a green county Wisconsin.
We have a brown county Wisconsin, but there's no orange county Wisconsin.
And
you may laugh at that, but the stakes of this race are really high.
Hubdie celebrated when Roe was overturned.
He said he's 100 percent anti-choice.
Well, I am leading the effort to restore reproductive freedoms
with my Women's Health Protection Act.
On healthcare, my
opponent wants to repeal the Affordable Care Act and kick millions
off of their health insurance.
You know, living
without health insurance throughout my youth due to a childhood illness
is why I got into public service to begin with.
I wrote the provision in the Affordable Care Act that allows young people
to stay on their parents' insurance until they turn 26.
And I will never stop fighting
until all Americans have the quality affordable health care
they need and deserve.
On the economy, Eric Hubdie wants to cut Social Security
and Medicare while giving new tax breaks
to the ultra-wealthy and well-connected like himself.
As your senator, I will always fight
to bring down costs for working families and make sure that
multi-millionaires, like my opponent, pay their fair share.
Now,
with Eric Hubdie, it's more than just the issues.
He's insulted just about everyone in our state.
He's called farmers lazy. He says seniors
in nursing homes shouldn't have the right to vote. He told kids
of single moms that they're likely to be poor and on drugs.
He even said that people who are struggling with their weight should pay
more for their health insurance. Can you believe it?
You know, it's clear that he has spent more time on his private beach
in California than on a factory floor or a family farm
here in Wisconsin.
We need to defeat him not only to protect
the rights and freedoms that we hold dear, not only
to continue to deliver for working families, but because
Wisconsinites actually deserve a senator who understands them,
not one who insults them.
So, Wisconsin, in just 90 days, you will have that choice.
You will decide between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump
and you will decide between me and my opponent.
And the stakes of that choice could not be higher.
So if you're with me in this fight,
I ask you to join my team at tammiebulblen.com
or by texting tammie to 2-4-0-0-7.
You are all so amazing.
Know your power.
When I see this crowd, I know that together we will fight
and together we will win.
All right.
Very dumb.
And look I couldn't live in this.
I leave it somewhere.
No a flying through the stars.
I hope it's not less forever.
Please welcome to the stage, Bon Iver.
I can't believe I'm the one who was so lonely.
I feel like no one to give, I must be dreaming.
I want this dream to be real, I'm in this feeling.
I make my wish on the side, and hope is not the last forever.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,00, oh, oh, ah, ooh, that, ah, ooh, oh, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ah, ah, c'mnie, ooh, on, ooh, setup, ooh, ooh, oh, it's all final.
Hey Ben.
Hey, hey, hey.
Let's do it a little bit.
It's hard for you to see.
Make sure you hate it.
Great, dude.
Woo!
Go fire!
Come on!
Make sure you hate it.
Get nobody!
Go fire!
Get nobody!
Go fire!
We're good. You're really loud.
Hello everybody. We love you. We all know why we're here.
We love you.
For the love we're far along
In the shopping of the snow
We'll miss you through the green young dollar
We'll be anxious now
And you'll look for a gift for me
Go on
From the far floor of the moon
In the towers of the holy cold
I've been told you're here just to cry back down
When you're feeling as you're over
Can't you tell us just say it more
Now you've added up to what you're from
The road
Did you take the rain out from your furnace
Then we'll stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will
stay the way I will stay the way
I will stay the way I will stay the way
the way I will stay the way
the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way
the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way
the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way
of the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way I will stay the way
I learned about it
Whoa
Stay
I'm still standing in the need of a friend
Put your little friend in the need of a friend
No, I don't know the plan
No, I can't think of a man's story
No, man's a question
Lessons
But what will you lose to come to see?
Not see, but I could not see
Yes, it's hard to believe
When I saw what you see
Just come back my journey
Please, please, please
I cannot let you conceal
Oh, it's not like that's close to fear or no
It's not the broader wheel
False the fashion of a game
I learned about it
Wow, that's about it
That's after you
The entrance of the baby!
CHEERING
I am my mother's only one
It's a love
I wear my garments so it's short
Now you know
When it goes on
Holy love is on
Holy Wordest thing is on floor
The sky is warm and cheesy
I am my mother on the wall with the song
I'm moving what I'm sure to show
Nothing's more, nothing's more
Only love is so
Let me look slightly reduced
Leaving up birds ready through
Yeah, ready throughs, ready through
All we love is so
Only love is so
Let me look slightly reduced
This guy is one of those shes
Thank y'all so much
My name is Justin Vernon
This is Michael Lewis and Sean Carey
Mike's from Minnesota, but he might have one on us today
This is pretty good showing for Wisconsin I'd say
I just got a packers rule down here that's absolutely correct
We're going to close out here with a nice old
Patriotic song that's been rolling around my head these last
months and I love this melody I love y'all appreciate you
We're here for the right reasons we all know what we're here for
So we're going to do our thing make this music and make
way for the people that we need to hear from
music
Yes, we're ready around the flag
We're ready once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
We were ready from the hillside
Rally from the plain
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
The union forever
Rebels are up
Down with the traitors
Up with the stars
While we're ready around the flag
Rally once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
Shouting
We were welcome to our numbers
The loyal true and brave
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
And although he may be poor
I hope that you'll be asleep
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
The union forever
Rebels are up
Down with the traitors
Up with the stars
While we're ready around the flag
We're ready once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
Let's go!
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
My story is a Wisconsin story, one of hard work and perseverance
And that's why I'm glad and excited that Vice President Harris' running mate is a lifelong Midwesterner
Just like me, we'll always fight for working families and understand real America
As a kid from Cadat, I'm very proud to stand on this stage today as we welcome the next President and Vice President of the United States of the Chippewa Valley
Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz know that rural America is the backbone of our nation
Family farms like mine that feed our country and its small businesses and towns like Cadat that keep our economy strong
But while Donald Trump was in office, my brothers and I saw firsthand his disastrous trade wars and economic policies
He's left many farmers like us struggling and devastated small and midsize grain farms
Trump stands inside a big egg, big oil and giant corporations
Not family farms, and he made it harder for us to compete
Together with President Biden, Kamala Harris has fought for rural communities, whether through fixing our roads and bridges
And how many products to markets are fighting to expand affordable healthcare or helping family farms like mine
Donald Trump and JD Vance just don't care about rural America, no matter how much they pretend to
That's why this is November, I'm voting for Kamala Harris and Governor Walz
It's my honor to introduce our future Vice President, Governor Tim Walz
Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you very much.
Now, feel the check, let's step it out.
Wow.
Hello, Claire.
Isn't it good to have a candidate who can pronounce the name correctly?
Wow.
Les, thank you.
Thank you for the introduction.
More importantly, thank you for articulating what we know it means to live out here in
the Midwest.
Care for your neighbors.
Kindness.
I want to acknowledge a few people today.
Everybody who I have to tell you might be the kindest human being I have ever met.
Your governor, Tony Evers.
A dear friend of mine who I had a chance to serve with in the House of Representatives,
an incredible Senator, Tammy Baldwin.
The people's lawyer, your Attorney General, Josh Call, and someone who knows, education
is a foundation of everything, State Superintendent Jill Underley.
All the state and local officials are here, but I want to say that we're in a personal
privilege on this.
I got a bunch of my family down here in the front, so, a couple of them, a couple of
them are badgers too, by the way, so, and a real special thank you to everybody here
looking out across here.
Look, you're busy people.
You got things to do.
It's a summer day.
You had to walk two miles.
I have nothing to do with that, by the way, nothing.
But you came here for one beautiful, simple reason.
You love this country and this democracy.
I couldn't be prouder to be on this ticket to help make Kamala Harris the next President
of the United States.
You know it, Vice President Harris is on the side of the American people.
She took on predators, fraudsters, transnational gang members.
She stood up against powerful corporate interests, and she never hesitated, not once, to reach
across the aisle if it improved people's lives.
Being a Midwesterner too, I know a little something about commitment to people.
I was born in a small town in Nebraska where community meant everything.
My mom and dad taught me to show generosity to my neighbors and work for a common good.
At 17, I joined the Army National Guard.
For 24 years, I proudly wore the uniform of this nation.
And that service, just as it did for my dad, a Korean warrior veteran, and millions of
others, I got the GI Bill and it gave me a shot at a college education.
My dad was a teacher, my siblings were all teachers, and three of them married teachers.
It's noble work.
I had the privilege of teaching public school, social studies, and coaching football for
20 years.
Back for all you Packer and Badgers fan, yeah, we did win a state championship.
That's what we do.
But it was my students who encouraged me to run for office.
I never thought that much about it, but they saw in me what I was hoping to instill in them.
This idea of a commitment to a better world, a common good, a belief that one single person
can actually make a difference.
I lived in a red district, but my neighbors were kind enough and graced me with the opportunity
to go to the United States House of Representatives for 12 years to represent.
I learned how to compromise without compromising my values.
And as governor of the great state of Minnesota, I brought all that experience.
Okay, okay.
Are there Minnesotans in the house today?
Bringing that experience to tackling the challenges that we're facing our state, we don't shy
away from challenges, but I'll tell you what.
Donald Trump, he sees the world differently than we see it.
He has no understanding of service because he's too busy servicing himself again and
again and again, again and again and again.
This guy weakens our country to strengthen his own hands.
He mocks our laws.
He sows chaos and division amongst the people.
And that's to say nothing of the job he did as president.
He froze in the face of COVID and it cost people's lives.
He drove the economy into the ground and make no mistake about it.
That crime was up when Donald Trump was president.
Those of you who are a little older know this.
Older Republicans used to talk about freedom.
These guys today, it turns out that freedom to them means government should be free to
invade your exam room with your doctor.
Now, look, we're pretty neighborly with Wisconsin.
We get our friendly battles.
But in Minnesota, just like in Wisconsin, we respect our neighbors and the personal
choices they make.
Even if we wouldn't make the same choices for ourselves because we know there's a golden
rule.
Mind your own damn business, mind your own damn business.
I don't need you telling me about our healthcare.
I don't need you telling us who we love.
And I sure the hell don't need you telling us what books we're going to read.
And there's a very personal one for me.
And that includes IVF.
Some of you might have heard this.
This is very personal for my wife and I.
When Gwen and I decided to have children, we went through years of fertility treatments.
And I remember each night praying that the call was going to come and it was going to
be good news.
The phone would ring, tenseness in my stomach, and then the agony when you heard the treatments
hadn't worked.
So it wasn't by chance that when we welcomed our first child, our beautiful daughter, we
named her hope.
When Vice President Harris and I and everyone here talks about freedom, we mean the freedom
to make your own healthcare decisions.
And for all of our little ones to be free to go to school without worrying about being
shot dead in their classroom.
And just like Wisconsin, over in Minnesota, we believe in the Second Amendment, but we
also believe in common sense gun violence laws.
And just so you know, when I was in Congress, I was the top gun at the trap shoot three
years in a ray.
I can outshoot them too.
I can outshoot these guys.
Look, freedom is when, freedom, oh, can we get somebody to help?
Somebody's hot.
Can we get somebody to help?
You okay?
Drink some water, folks.
It is hot out.
It's somebody else.
Thank you.
We get water.
Thank you all for helping.
Grateful.
Thank you.
Thank you all.
Take care of one another on this.
This is why we gather.
Look, it's hot.
It is hot.
I'll come again.
They've got folks here.
We'll make sure we're okay.
But I have to tell you all again, in all seriousness, to come and gather like this to
talk about our freedoms, the ability to talk about what could be good.
And I have to say, this idea of caring for our neighbor and kindness and a hand up
when somebody needs it, or just the sense of that people go through things and to be
able to be there when they need it, that's who we are.
It's not about mocking.
It's not name-calling.
You see it amongst them.
Thank you all.
They do.
Thank you all.
We're okay.
We have someone down.
They're treating him.
They're getting him some water.
And it's good.
He's going to get up.
You guys need some water, too?
We'll ask him.
Teddy, can you see if they have some more water?
That'd be great.
Take care of your neighbors.
There we go.
All right, folks, hey, they're getting him taken care of.
I don't want to be too light-hearted.
I thought about doing the Minnesota Rowser, but I thought that might be too much over
here on you.
Look, we'll get them taken care of.
You know what this is about.
This is about when they talk about the freedoms that we heard.
And freedom in education means that our teachers aren't saddled with crippling debt when they
go into this, that students own debt.
And I'll tell you what a big part of this is, we settle our political differences, not
through violence, but through our votes.
The question is pretty simple.
This election is all about asking that question.
Which direction will this country go in?
Donald Trump knows the direction he wants to take us.
He wants to take it back.
He wants to do the things that you saw, but be very clear.
Don't believe him when he plays dumb.
He knows exactly what he's talking about.
He knows exactly what Project 2025 will do in restricting and taking our freedoms.
He knows that it rigs the economy for the super rich.
If he gets a chance to go back to the White House, it will be far worse than it was four
years ago, raising costs for the middle class, repealing the Affordable Care Act, gutting
social security and Medicare, the very safety nets that protect people when they're
down.
And of course banning abortions across this country with or without Congress.
This is where we talk to our neighbors.
Donald Trump is not for you or your family.
And Trump's running made shares those same dangerous and backward beliefs.
You know, just like all of us in regular America, we go to Yale and then we have our
careers funded by Silicon Valley billionaires.
And then you write a book about the place you grew up and you trashed that place.
Come on, that's not who Wisconsin is.
That's not who Minnesota is.
We're better than that.
One of the best parts of this job is going to be, I can't wait till the debate.
So, look, I've done this enough and I know bullies and I'm not a name caller, but what
I am as a teacher, I observe things.
So I want to tell you what I observed and you've observed about, you've observed about
these guys when you see them, that it's a very clear thing.
Yes, they are creepy and weird as hell.
You see it.
This is not normal.
This is not normal behavior.
Nobody's asking for this crazy stop.
So I'll tell you what, you heard it from the vice president.
You've heard her talk about this.
We're sure the hell not going back.
We're not going back.
We are not going back.
We damn sure aren't, but it's even more than that.
This is a campaign about where we're going and that's a future where everyone matters
and everyone's included.
Kamala Harris, she believes in the freedom to make your own choices.
She believes in opportunity for every single person to join the middle class and she believes
in the promise of America.
Thank you, Madam Vice President, for the trust that you've placed in me.
Wisconsin, please help me in giving a warm Midwest welcome to the next president of the
United States, Kamala Harris.
Thank you, Madam Vice President, for the trust that you've placed in the United States.
Thank you for everything you are and everything you do for our country.
And it is good to be with so many incredible leaders, including the most magnificent, wonderful
Governor Tony Evers.
Every time I come to Wisconsin, Tony meets me on the tarmac, he's such an incredible human
being.
I want to thank Secretary of State Sarah Gudluski, Chair of the Wisconsin Democratic Party,
Ben Wickler, and my dear, dear friend, Senator Tammy Baldwin.
I served with Tammy when I was in the United States Senate and I'm going to tell you, she
was always, always, always fighting for the people of this state.
And in November, we are going to re-elect her to the United States Senate.
And please give it up one more time for Wisconsin's own bony there.
It's a good afternoon, it's a good afternoon.
And let me say, I also want to bring greetings from our incredible President Joe Biden.
He loves Wisconsin, he loves Wisconsin, and I know we are all deeply grateful for his
lifetime of service to our nation, and for all he continues to do.
That's right, that's right, that's right, I'm going to tell him what you said.
So Wisconsin, this has been a big week.
On Monday, I officially became the Democratic nominee for President of the United States.
And yesterday, I announced my running maintenance campaign, Governor Tim Walz.
And as you just heard in the Minnesotans here know, Tim has an incredible record as Governor
of the great state of Minnesota.
And to those who know him best, Tim is more than a Governor, to his wife Gwen, he is a
husband, to his kids, Hope and Gus, he is Dad, to his fellow veterans, he is Sergeant Major
Walz, to the people of Southern Minnesota for 12 years, he was a Congressman, to his
former high school students, he was Mr. Walz, and to his former high school football players,
he was Coach, Coach, and in 90 days the nation will know Coach Walz by a new title, and
a new title, Vice President of the United States of America.
Oh, it really is good to be back in Wisconsin.
So listen, let me tell you, I am clear.
The path to the White House runs right through this state, and with your help, we will win
in November, we are going to win, we are going to win.
And I've been here many times as you all know recently and even before, and many of you
know then, before I was elected Vice President, before I was elected United States Senator,
I was an elected Attorney General, and before that, an elected District Attorney,
and before that, I was a courtroom prosecutor.
So in those roles, I took on perpetrators of all kinds,
predators who abused women, fraudsters who ripped off consumers,
scammers who broke the rules for personal gain, so hear me when I say,
I know Donald Trump's tight.
I know it's tight.
In fact, I've been dealing with people like him my whole career.
For example, as Attorney General of California, well hold on, you know what,
the courts are going to handle that part of it.
What we're going to do is beat them in November.
So I'll tell you, as Attorney General, I took on one of our country's largest
for-profit colleges that scammed students.
Well, Donald Trump ran a for-profit college that scammed students.
As a prosecutor, I specialized in cases of sexual abuse.
Well, Donald Trump was found liable for committing sexual abuse.
As Attorney General, I held the big Wall Street banks accountable for fraud.
Well, Donald Trump was just found guilty of fraud.
34 counts.
So in this campaign, I'll tell you, I will probably put my record against his any day of the week.
Any day of the week.
But let's make no mistake, this campaign is not just about us versus Donald Trump.
It's about two very different visions for our nation.
Two very different visions.
One for us, focused on the future.
The other, focused on the past.
And Wisconsin, we, we hear, we fight for the future.
We fight for a future where every worker has the freedom to join a union.
We fight for a future where every senior can retire with dignity.
A future where we build a broad-based economy and one where every American has the opportunity
to own a home, to start a business, to build wealth.
And understand, in this fight, as Tim Walz likes to point out,
we are joyful warriors.
Because we know that while fighting for a brighter future may be hard work,
hard work is good work, hard work is good work.
And so, we will continue to fight for affordable housing, for affordable health care,
affordable child care and paid leave.
We believe in a future where we lower the cost of living for America's families
so that they have a chance not just to get by but to get ahead.
Because while our economy is doing well by many measures,
prices for everyday things like groceries are still too high.
You know it and I know it.
You know, when I was Attorney General, I went after price fixing schemes.
And when I am President, it will be a day one priority to fight to bring down prices.
I will take on big corporations that engage in illegal price gouging.
I will take on corporate landlords that unfairly raise rents on working families.
I will take on big pharma and cap the cost of prescription drugs for all Americans.
And continue to bring manufacturing jobs back to America.
And back to communities like Eau Claire.
So all this is to say, strengthening our economy and building up the middle class
will be a defining goal of my presidency.
Because you see, coach walls and I know when America's middle class is strong, America is strong.
And as we work to move our nation forward,
Donald Trump intends to take our nation backward.
There is so much evidence of that point that really is.
But look at most recently, Project 2025 and that agenda.
Project 2025, you know, if you have some time to take a look at it,
I'm telling you, it is a plan to weaken the middle class.
It is a plan to weaken the middle class.
If he is elected, Donald Trump intends to give tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations.
He intends to cut social security and Medicare.
He intends to surrender our fight against the climate crisis and he intends to end the Affordable Care Act.
And because we all remember what it was like before the Affordable Care Act,
we understand what that means. That's about taking us back to a time when insurance companies
had the power to deny people with preexisting conditions. You remember that?
What that was like when we're not going back.
We are not going back. We're not going back.
But in order to know where we need to go, let's remember the past and what that was like.
Because we cannot forget on that point about the ACA, remember people with preexisting
conditions being denied, children with asthma, breast cancer survivors, grandparents,
with diabetes, it was no joke. And we cannot go back.
Ours has to be a fight for the future and a fight for freedom, a fight for freedom.
Across our nation, we have been witnessing a full on assault against hard fought, hard won
freedoms and rights, the freedom to vote, the freedom to be safe from gun violence, the freedom
to breathe clean air and drink clean water, the freedom to love who you love openly and with pride.
And the freedom of a woman to make decisions about her own body and not have her government
telling her what to do.
And let's remember, let's remember the traditions of our great country.
Generations of Americans before us led in the fight for freedom.
And now then, as they would expect, the baton is in our hands, the baton is in our hands,
each and every one of us. So we then, who believe in the sacred freedom to vote,
will finally pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and the freedom to vote at.
We, who believe in the freedom to live safe from gun violence, will finally pass universal
background checks, red flag laws, and an assault weapons ban.
We, who believe in reproductive freedom, will fight for a woman's right to choose.
And we remember that when he was president, Donald Trump handpicked three members of the
United States Supreme Court, the Court of Thurgood and RBG, because he intended for them to overturn
Roe v. Wade, and as he intended, they did. And now more than 20 states in our country
have a Trump abortion ban, many with no exceptions even for rape and incest.
And if he wins, we all know he will sign a national abortion ban to outlaw abortion in every state
even in Wisconsin. But we are not going to let that happen,
because we trust women.
And when I am president of the United States and when Congress passes a bill to restore the
protections of Roe v. Wade, I will sign it into law.
Thank you all. So listen, everyone took time out of your busy lives and days and all your
obligations to come out here and to be together as one community. And I know you did it also because
we all know, listen, so much is on the line in this election. It can't be said seriously enough.
So much is on the line. And compounded with everything else that we knew was on the line,
think about the fact that last month, the United States Supreme Court
basically told the former president, who has been convicted of fraud,
that going forward he will be immune no matter what he does in the White House.
Think about what that means and the change circumstances since 16,
6, 20, when you think about what that court decision means. Donald Trump has openly vowed if
reelected, he will be a dictator on day one, that he would weaponize the Department of Justice
against his political enemies, that he would round up peaceful protesters and throw them out of our
country and even quote, terminate the United States Constitution.
So let us be clear, let us be clear, someone who suggests we should terminate the Constitution
of the United States should never again have a chance to stand behind the seal of the President
of the United States.
So basically I think it all comes down to this. We're all here because we love our country.
We love our country. We love our country. And I do believe it is the highest form of patriotism
to fight for the ideals of our country. And that's how we preserve the promise
of America. Because after all, the promise of America is what makes it possible, by the way,
for Governor Walts and me to stand on this stage today. Just think about it. Two middle-class kids,
one a daughter of Oakland, California, who was raised by a working mother and had a summer job
at McDonald's, the other a son of the Nebraska Plains who grew up working on a farm. Think about
that. Only in America, is it possible for them together to make it all the way together to the
White House, only in America, only in America.
So this is a fight to make real the promise of America for every person in our nation.
And also I'll tell you and I promise you, our campaign is going to reach out to everyone.
From red states, from blue states, from the heartland to the coast, we are running a campaign on
behalf of all Americans. And when elected, we will govern on behalf of all Americans.
Because coach Walts and I know, and we're clear about this, unlike the other side,
we work for you. We work for you, the American people, and we will always fight for you,
for your family, for your freedoms, and for your future. So Wisconsin, ultimately, this election
is about a question that we each face. We each face a question in this election, and that is,
what kind of country do we want to live in? Do we want to live in a country of freedom,
of compassion, of rule of law, or a country of chaos, fear and hate?
And the beauty of our democracy is we each have the power individually and collectively.
We each have the power in a democracy to answer that question. The power is with the people.
The power is with the people.
So in the next 90 days, we need you to use your power. We need you to knock on doors. We need
you to register folks to vote. We need you to energize, and organize, and mobilize, and make
your voices heard. And I'll tell you about an hour ago after I landed on Air Force II, a
meta-collection of young leaders from Girl Scout Troop 3307.
Oh, they were spectacular. Oh, they were spectacular. None of them had taller than three feet. They
are just, they were spectacular. And one of those young leaders had a shirt on that said,
you are powerful, and your voice matters. Right?
From the mouths of babes, they're telling us, they're telling us.
And so let's remember that. Let's remember our power. Let's remember our voice matters.
And with that, then I ask, are you ready to make your voices 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. God bless you, and God bless you.
I pray to ease up of myself, and I'm not free to run in hell, hey.
