ECNETNews – Both major presidential candidates are mobilizing their core supporters as the election approaches. Vice President Kamala Harris will engage in a livestream event aimed at energizing grassroots supporters, while Donald Trump will speak to significant Jewish donors before addressing the Israeli-American Council.
Harris is scheduled to join a two-hour “Unite for America” livestream event in Michigan, focusing on grassroots organizations backing her campaign. This effort follows her appearances at significant events, reinforcing her commitment to engage with voters ahead of the election.
Meanwhile, Trump will be in Washington, participating in a key event titled “Fighting Anti-Semitism in America.” This gathering includes prominent figures from the Jewish community, reflecting the importance of this demographic in the upcoming election. Additionally, Trump will address the Israeli-American Council during its national convention, coinciding with the anniversary of the recent conflict involving Hamas.
As part of her campaign strategy, Harris will make stops in pivotal swing states, including Wisconsin and Georgia, where she will highlight the tragic case of a young mother who died due to complications related to abortion access. Harris posits that this incident underscores the implications of recent political decisions on healthcare and women’s rights.
Amber Thurman’s death has drawn attention to Georgia’s stringent abortion laws implemented after the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn federal abortion rights, a change supported by Trump through his judicial appointments.
Trump is also set to hold a rally in North Carolina on Saturday, strategically targeting battleground voters.
These campaign efforts come on the heels of the Federal Reserve’s unexpected decision to cut its benchmark interest rate significantly, marking a shift in monetary policy after a prolonged period of high rates. This development may have substantial implications for the electoral landscape as the presidential election looms.
Trump expressed concerns about the rate cut during a recent campaign stop, suggesting it reflects economic challenges facing the nation. In response, the White House emphasized the administration’s respect for the Federal Reserve’s independence, insisting that it has maintained a clear stance on this issue amidst political speculation.
