To be clear #KamalaHarris started off as a prosecutor specializing in sexual assault cases and has for 3 decades been a staunch advocate for survivors. She pledged to end the nationwide rape kit backlog as POTUS as she did as AG. This op-ed made no mention of that. #TimesUp2020

"Sexual violence is a national problem that deserves a national response"<-- This is precisely what #KamalaHarris proposed months before the article was written with her national response to the rape kit backlog. #TimesUp2020 #MeToo

#KamalaHarris also repeatedly drew attention to and showed solidarity (in person and online) with McDonald's workers who are fighting for a workplace free from sexual harrassment. #TimesUp2020 #MeToo #DemDebate #FightFor15 #JusticeIsOnTheBallot

#Kamala's website has a section on Gender Equality discussing her work combatting sexual assault, rape, and sexual harrassment. #KamalaHarris introduced the EMPOWER Act in the Senate so her advocacy on this precedes the campaign. #TimesUp2020 #MeToo

Here are more examples of #Kamala's advocacy and action for survivors. Introducing Survivor's Access to Suppprtive Care Act, drawing attention the Trump's assault on survivors and more. #MeToo #TimesUp2020 #KamalaHarris #DemDebate

Let's also recognize the fact that #KamalaHarris, as a member of the Senate Judiciary committee has been a champion for women's rights & survivors. Her questioning and voting record is proof of the importance to #Kamala. #TimesUp2020 #MeToo #DemDebate

I could go on, but I'll end with this prior thread discussing #Kamala's record of advocacy and bringing justice to survivors. #KamalaHarris is unquestionably the candidate who has dedicated her entire career to survivors. #TimesUp2020 #MeToo #DemDebate

PS- I would be remiss if I didn't mention #Kamala's advocacy for Rep. Katie Hill and her fight against cyber exploitation (commonly referred to as revenge porn). Here again #KamalaHarris' work predates the campaign with her ENOUGH Act. #TimesUp2020 #MeToo
