Mini Timmaraju, the President and CEO for Reproductive Freedom for All, was one of the first speakers at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. She highlighted the states that have supported reproductive rights and emphasized the importance of the upcoming election for America’s future. Timmaraju has a history of working on Hillary Clinton’s campaign and is dedicated to fighting for access to abortion, birth control, paid parental leave, and protections from pregnancy discrimination. The DNC is taking place in Chicago from August 19-22 at the United Center, where Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled to formally accept the party’s nomination for the 2024 Election. The convention themes include “For the People,” “A Bold Vision for America’s Future,” “A Fight for our Freedoms,” and “For our Future.” The event will be live-streamed on the DNC’s website and USA TODAY’s YouTube channel each night of the convention.
