Vice President Kamala Harris stopped her first rally of the day in Michigan on Friday for a medical emergency.
The Democratic nominee was in Grand Rapids Friday afternoon, where she was addressing union voters in the automotive industry. But she had to pause abruptly when someone near the stage had a medical emergency.
“We need a medic over here. Let’s clear a path so they can come through please”, Harris said. “Are you okay?”
After being reassured that the attendee was okay, Harris continued her speech.
Harris focused mostly on the automobile industry, saying former president Donald Trump encouraged automobile companies to relocate outside of Michigan so they could pay their workers less.
Harris then reiterated her support for “strong unions.better pay and working conditions.”
“Let’s be clear, Donald Trump is no friend of labor”, Harris said, calling Trump “one of the biggest losers of manufacturing.”
As the presidential race grows tighter, both Harris and Trump are making campaign stops in Michigan this week, with Trump set to visit Oakland County on Friday before holding a rally in Detroit in the evening.
During his visit, Trump the Building America’s Future group will host Trump for a roundtable in Oakland County that will also include Republican Mike Rogers—who’s vying for Michigan’s open U.
