Vice President Kamala Harris hosted a star-studded rally in Houston before a crowd of thousands, urging men and women to vote in defense of their freedoms and against former President Donald Trump’s policies. Harris emphasized the importance of organizing and mobilizing to fight for freedom, particularly in the context of healthcare crises that she blamed Trump for. The event featured appearances by Beyoncè Knowles-Carter and Willie Nelson, with Beyonce highlighting the need for a world without limitations for daughters.
The rally focused heavily on reproductive rights, with speakers sharing personal stories about the impact of restrictive laws.

Colin Allred in his race against Republican Sen. Ted Cruz. Attendees expressed their concerns about Trump’s behavior, particularly his disrespect towards women.
The crowd, estimated around 30,000 people, turned the rally into a dance party, with attendees like Vicki Lewis emphasizing the importance of voting for candidates who represent their interests in healthcare, reproductive rights, and retirement. Others, like Austin Valdezstapp and Michael White, attended to show support for women’s rights and express their frustration with Trump’s actions and statements. Overall, the event served as a call to action for Texans to vote and support candidates who prioritize freedom and equality.
