Utah women supporting Kamala Harris share their 'why'

Gwen Walz, wife of Democratic vice presidential candidate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, headlined a Zoom call Thursday evening hosted by a group of Utah women drumming up support for Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign.

On the call, Gwen Walz talked about her time as a teacher. She said that’s how she met her husband, when they both taught in Nebraska (he taught social studies and coached football, while she taught English). She told a story of a football player who was struggling with reading, and she helped tutor him so that he could stay on the football team.

She also talked about how she and her husband struggled with infertility before fertility treatments including in vitro fertilization helped them have their two children, Hope and Gus.

ducation and reproductive rights are two issues that can’t be entrusted to another Donald Trump presidency, Gwen Walz said.
