Additionally, Kamala released her first election ad, Beyoncé‘s song “Freedom”.
“In this election, we each face the question of what kind of country we want to live in,” Kamala asks in the ad. “Some want a country of chaos and fear of hate. But us? We choose different. Freedom to thrive, not just survive. Freedom to protect ourselves from gun violence. Freedom to make decisions about our own bodies. We choose a future where no child lives in poverty. We choose a future where everyone has access to health care. We choose a future where no one is above the law.”
The politician ended the ad by saying, “We believe in the promise of America, and we’re ready to fight for it, because if we fight, we will win.”
