Earlier this week, Harris highlighted the death of Amber Thurman, a Georgia mother featured Monday in an in-depth ProPublica report that said hers was the first time an abortion-related death officially deemed "preventable" has surfaced following the overturning of Roe v. Wade and subsequent enforcement of state abortion bans.

Vice President Harris plans on Friday to give her first abortion speech in Georgia, where she will address the deaths of two Georgia mothers.
