by Kamala Harris
There's something happening all across our country. It's not about Joe or me, it's about you, and it's about us. People of all ages and colors and creeds who are yes taking to the streets and also persuading our family members, rallying our friends, organizing our neighbors, and getting out the vote.
And we have shown that when we vote, we expand access to health care and expand access to the ballot box and ensure that more working families can make a decent living. And I'm so inspired by a new generation. You, you are pushing us to realize the ideals of our nation. Pushing us to live the values we share decency and fairness, justice, and love.
You are patriots who remind us that to love our country is to fight for the ideals of our country. In this election, we have a chance to change the course of history. We're all in this fight you, me, and Joe together. What an awesome responsibility. What an awesome privilege.
