In the wake of the first presidential debate, Gwen Walz, wife of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, traveled to Manchester on Thursday as part of the campaign’s “New Way Forward Tour.”
Addressing a crowd of 100+ enthusiastic supporters, Walz sought to highlight the stark contrast between the vision put forth by Vice President Kamala Harris and her husband’s campaign, versus the “Project 2025” agenda championed by former President Donald Trump and his running mate, JD Vance.
“Kamala Harris was fabulous,” Walz told the audience, referencing Harris’ debate performance. “She owned issue after issue and painted a clear picture of her vision for the future. In stark contrast, we saw nothing but insults and lies from the other side.”
Walz went on to share her personal story of the challenges she and her husband faced in starting a family, underscoring the importance of preserving reproductive freedoms — freedoms that she warned would be under threat from Donald Trump’s Project 2025 agenda, including restrictions on IVF.
“It breaks our heart to think that if Donald Trump and JD Vance get their way, other families like ours won’t be able to make their own decisions about their own families,” Walz said. “Their agenda criminalizes reproductive health, denies women emergency care, and makes it harder to get birth control than to buy a gun. That is not the future we want.”

With fewer than 60 days until Election Day, Walz urged the audience to volunteer, engage with undecided voters, and fight tirelessly to ensure a “brighter, more hopeful future” prevails.
“We have the power to define our own future,” Walz said. “But we have to fight for it every single day in every single way. I’m asking you to do that with me, with Tim, with Doug, your friends and your neighbors. Because here’s what we call, and I love it when she says it: ‘We know what to say. We know what to do.'”
