U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris departed to Philadelphia for meeting with state legislators and other leaders to discuss the fight to protect reproductive rights.

She is scheduled to host a roundtable discussion on the issue, some three weeks after the Supreme Court ruled to overturn Roe v. Wade.

The White House has voiced its commitment to protecting reproductive rights, while House Democrats passed a bill Friday to restore abortion rights nationwide - which is expected to stall in the Senate.
