WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris returns to Chicago on Friday in a visit that will highlight reproductive rights in a state where abortion rights are safeguarded and Democrats are making that a centerpiece of campaigns.
The Harris trip to Illinois — her fourth since becoming vice president — comes at a time when Illinois, where Democrats control state government, is a safe haven for abortion rights and as a growing number of states have been imposing bans since the Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade.
