OMAHA- America's Second Gentleman, Doug Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, visited Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District on Tuesday to tell the state that President Joe Biden wants to win "the blue dot" a second time in 2024. Emhoff was in Nebraska to lift up U.S. House candidate and current State Senator Tony Vargas, who is set to challenge incumbent Rep. Don Bacon in the fall.

Emhoff, while speaking at the event, highlighted the importance of reproductive rights. 'More than one in three American women of reproductive age now live under an abortion ban, including right here," he said, "Let's be clear: At 12 weeks, it's a ban." Vargas agreed with Emhoff, and has in fact made the issues one of the key elements in his campaign.

This was Emhoff's fourth trip to Nebraska since 2019, though President Biden has yet to visit. The Trump campaign has sent surrogates to the state as well, including Donald Trump Jr. Former President Trump has also visited the state twice, including once in 2020. The National Republican Congressional Committee issued a statement critiquing Biden and Harris for sending "their second fiddle to NE-02 instead of showing up themselves."
