Gabby Giffords [00:00:02]
Hello, fellow American. 

Gabby Giffords [00:00:07]
I'm Gabby Giffords. I was born in the great state of Arizona. 

Gabby Giffords [00:00:17]
I was born with grit. I grew up racing motorcycles, mucking stalls, and exploring the beautiful desert. I fell for an astronaut. 

Gabby Giffords [00:00:35]
For five years, I served in Congress from a swing district. Everybody called me a rising m star. Then on January 8, 2011, a man tried to assassinate me. He shot 19 people. He killed six. 

Gabby Giffords [00:00:54]
Terrible, terrible day. I almost died. But I fought for my life, and I survived. 

Gabby Giffords [00:01:07]
I learned to walk again, one step at a time. I learned to talk again, one word at a time. So many people helped me as I worked hard to recover, including a decent man for Delaware who always checked in. He still does. 

Gabby Giffords [00:01:32]
Thank you, Joe Biden. Thank you for everything. 

Gabby Giffords [00:01:39]
Joe is a great president. My friend Kamala will be a great president. She is tough. She has grit. Kamala can beat the gun lobby. 

Gabby Giffords [00:01:55]
She can fight gun trafficking. 

Gabby Giffords [00:02:01]
Kamala, um, stood up to Wall street and the drug company. She will protect abortion access. 

Gabby Giffords [00:02:12]
She will defend our freedom. She saved lives. Join me in voting for Kamala Harris. Thank you.
