Reporter: The death of Amber Thurman was likely preventable if she had access to abortion care in her home state of Georgia. 
Thurman’s mother: What happened to her was preventable. My daughter is gone because of what Donald Trump did!
Trump: for 54 years, they were trying to get Roe v Wade terminated and I did it, and I'm proud to have done it.
Harris: I'm Kamala Harris, and I approve this message.
This is not the first time Harris has blamed Georgia for the death of Thurman, but even if it was one time, Katie Glenn Daniel of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America says Kamala Harris could not be more wrong about what happened.
"We are in agreement that this was a horrible tragedy," says Daniel. "Amber Thurman and her twins should be alive today, but Georgia's pro-life law is not to blame."
The real killer in Georgia case
Daniel says Thurman suffered a septic abortion, which is a known complication of taking abortion drugs, and
"tragically passed away from that as other women have before and as hundreds of thousands of babies who are killed by these drugs die every single year."
"So, this is a horrible tragedy," says Daniel. "It should never have happened because these drugs should not be freely out there on the market killing babies and hurting women."
News outlets including Pro Publica have blamed Georgia for Thurman's death. SBA Pro-Life America disputed that report, although Pro Publica stood by its article in a September email exchange with AFN.
Though not mentioned in the Harris ad, a second Georgia woman, Candi Miller, also died after taking the drugs.
A sympathetic ProPublica story about the women blamed their deaths on Georgia’s pro-life laws, claiming emergency room doctors left the women to die or risked violating state laws about surgical abortions.
On the pro-abortion Las Libres website, AFN found instructions for a woman rushing to the emergency room:
Tell all intake and medical staff that you think you’re having a miscarriage. Do not reveal that you took abortion medications—there is absolutely no way for them to know.
The ProPublica story also downplayed the dangers of the abortion pill even though misoprostol failed to expel the fetal tissues and gave both women sepsis.
Know your candidates
Voters need to be very clear on where Harris stands on the issue, Daniel said.
"Voters deserve the truth, and so as pro-lifers, we have to be willing to speak the truth," says Daniel. "The truth that abortion drugs are dangerous, the truth that every single pro-life state's laws allow for care for a miscarriage, allow for treatment in a medical emergency, and the truth that abortion is never the best option that women and their babies deserve so much better."
