In a bustling event packed with thousands of supporters, Vice President Kamala Harris took the stage in Houston, urging Texans to vote on November 5 to protect their freedoms and stand against former President Donald Trump's policies. "Texas, we're facing a healthcare crisis, and Trump is the architect of it, " Harris declared. Rather than being given or bestowed, she emphasized that freedom must be fought for. She called for loud organizing and mobilizing to energize voters.

The rally featured appearances from Houston native Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Texas music legend Willie Nelson. Beyoncé, known for her anthem "Freedom, " took the stage with her former Destiny's Child bandmate Kelly Rowland, but she didn't perform. Instead, she spoke as a mother, envisioning a world without ceilings or limitations for daughters. She asked, "Are you ready to add your voice to the new American song? " to enthusiastic cheers, introducing Harris to the stage.

With the election just 11 days away, Harris' team aimed to capture national attention. The event highlighted reproductive rights, with doctors wearing white coats sharing stories of women's healthcare struggles. Harris specifically addressed men, appealing to their desire to protect their daughters and wives from limited healthcare choices. She criticized Trump for not disclosing his medical records while pushing for strict abortion laws in Texas.

The night also supported Democratic Rep. Colin Allred, who is running against Senator Ted Cruz. The crowd chanted "Beat Ted Cruz" after Allred's speech. The event turned into a massive dance party before the rally, with the campaign estimating around 30, 000 attendees. Supporters like Vicki Lewis, wearing a "Vote" shirt, emphasized the importance of early voting and choosing leaders who fight for their future. Austin Valdezstapp attended to support women's rights, and Michael White expressed frustration with Trump's disrespectful behavior toward women.
