Wendy Davis to Campaign for Hillary Clinton in Minnesota on Sunday, February 28 and Monday, February

Minneapolis, MN – Former Texas State Senator and gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis will hit the campaign trail in Minnesota in support of Hillary Clinton’s campaign for President on Sunday, February 28th and Monday, February 29th. Davis will make stops in Duluth and around the Twin Cities metropolitan area to share why she believes Hillary Clinton will break down barriers for women and families as President, and encourage Minnesotans to caucus for Hillary on March 1st.

“Throughout her career, Hillary Clinton has demonstrated an exemplary ability to lead in the face of real challenges,” said State Senator Wendy Davis. “Hillary won't back down from her commitment to protecting women’s access to health care and defending Planned Parenthood from Republican attacks. Minnesota women and families need Hillary fighting for them in the White House.”

Davis has been a leader in the fight to protect women’s access to critical health care services. As president, Clinton will fight back against Republican attempts to defund Planned Parenthood, limit reproductive choice and restrict access to cancer screenings and birth control. She is honored to have the endorsement of both the Planned Parenthood Action Fund and NARAL Pro-Choice America.

Additional details on events with Davis will be made available in the coming days.

relatively very few public speeches. She is not a passionate speaker either, so I am not worried. It would have been great for her to beat the hateful, lying piece of crap we currently have for governor, but only because he is so bad that anything, except maybe Perry, would have been preferable!
