Tuesday I announced my running maate in this campaign Governor Tim Balz and as you all just heard Tim has a great record as governor of the great 5:02 state of Minnesota and to those who know him best Tim goes by a few more titles besides Governor to his wife Gwen [Applause] so thank you so Tim Tim we know him by we know him by Governor but you'll soon get to know his wife Gwen to whom you know what hold on a second hold on hold on hold on everybody hold on hold on hold on here's the thing we are all in here together I'm I'm told an extraordinary number of 6:00 folks who are here together because we love our country we're here to fight for our [Music] [Applause] democracy which includes respecting the voices that I think that we are hearing from and let me just say this on topic of what I think I'm hearing over there let me just speak to that for a moment and then I'm going to get back to the business in hand so let me say I have been clear now is the time to get a ceasefire deal and get the hostage deal done now is the time and the president and I are working around the clock every day to get that ceasefire deal done and bring the hostages 7:06 home so I respect your voices but we are here to now talk about this race in 2024 so Tim Waltz so let's just say this besides being governor the thing I've come to learn about Tim Walls that you have known and may learn more he's an extraordinary person um he's known by many titles to his wife Gwen he is husband to his kids hope and Gus he is Dad to the people of southern Minnesota for 12 years he was Congressman to his former high school students he was Mr walls and to his former High School football players he was coach and in 88 days the nation will know coach Walls by a new title Vice President of the United States so it's so good to be back in Arizona and I thank you all for turning out today this is an extraordinary extraordinary thing and Arizona I'll also this say this as exciting as this is we cannot lose sight of a really important fact we are definitely running as the underdog we are the underdog we are out in great numbers but we got a lot of work to do and this is going to be hard work but I 9:04 know we like hard work hard work is good work for all of us hard work is good work and we will do it with joy and I know we are all clear about what we are up against as many of you know before I was elected vice president I was an elected United States Senator before that before that I was an elected attorney general and before that an elected district attorney and before that I was a courtroom prosecutor so I took on in these roles perpetrators of all kinds [Applause] Predators who Abused 10:06 women frauders who ripped off consumers scammers who broke the rules for personal [Applause] gain so [Music] Arizona hear me when I say I know Donald Trump type I do in fact I've been dealing with people like in my entire career for example as Attorney General of California I took on one of our country's largest for-profit colleges that scammed students well Donald Trump ran a for-profit 11:03 college that scammed [Applause] students as a PR as a prosecutor I specialized in cases of sexual abuse well Donald Trump was found liable for committing sexual [Applause] abuse as attorney general I held Wall Street Banks accountable for fraud well Donald Trump was just found guilty of fraud 34 counts so all of this yeah the courts will deal with that we're going to win in November we're going to win in November we'll handle that too so but all of this is to say in this campaign I will proudly put my my record against his every day of the week every day of the 12:11 week but make no mistake that being said our campaign is not just about us versus Donald Trump it is about and I love you our campaign our campaign is about two different Visions for nation one ours focused on the future the other focused on the past and Arizona we we fight for the future a future with Affordable Health Care affordable child care and paid 13:09 Le a future where we build a broad-based economy where every American has an opportunity to own a home to start a business to build [Applause] wealth here with us today I know we have a number of native leaders and as president I will tell you I will always honor tribal sovereignty and respect tribal self-determination and fight for a future where every native person can realize their aspirations and every native Community is a place of opportunity 14:02 we here we believe in a future where we lower the cost of living for America's families so that they have the chance not just to get by but to get ahead because look while our economy is doing well by many measures prices for everyday things like groceries are still too high you know it and I know it when I was attorney general I went after price fixing schemes and when I am president I will continue that work to bring down prices I will take on I will take on big corporations that engage in illegal price gouging I will take on corporate landlords that unfairly raise rents on working 15:03 families I will take on big Pharma and cap the cost of prescription drugs for all Americans and all of this is to say unlike Donald Trump I will always put the middle class and Working Families First because you see coach walls and I know the middle class built the United States of America and when the middle class is strong America is strong and while we work to move our nation forward look Donald Trump be very clear intends to move us backward 16:03 just look and we're not going [Applause] back we're not going we're not going back not but just look look at his you know Tim talked about it look at his project 2025 agenda is 900 plus pages I can't believe they put that thing in writing by the way but when you look at it when you read it you will see project 2025 is a plan to weaken the middle class if he is elected Donald Trump intends to give a tax break to billionaires and big corporations he intends to cut Social Security and Medicare he intends to surrender our fight against the climate 17:04 crisis and Arizona every day you feel the impact of extreme heat and drought you know this crisis is real he calls it a [Applause] hoax and on top of all of this if Donald Trump wins in November he intends he intends to end the Affordable Care Act and take us back to a time when insurance companies had the power to deny people with preexisting conditions you remember what that was remember what that Wason win he won't win you're right 18:03 we will win we will win we win and and part of why we are going to win is because we [Music] remember and we are smart and we know what's happening and we're not falling for the gaslighting and we're not falling for the o dope that's why so look America has tried so many of those failed policies before and like we all know we're not going back we we will move forward and take on the biggest issues facing our nation for example the issue of immigration so I was Attorney General of 19:05 a border state I went after the transnational gangs the drug cartels and human traffickers I prosecuted them in case after case and I won so I know what I'm talking about we know our immigration system is broken and we know what what it takes to fix it comprehensive reform that includes strong border security and an earned Pathway to citizenship but Donald Trump does not want to fix this problem be clear about that he has no interest or desire to actually fix the problem he talks a big game about border security but he 20:06 does not walk the walk earlier this year everybody here knows earlier this year we had a chance to pass the toughest bipartisan border of security bill in decades but Donald Trump tanked the deal because he thought by doing that it would help him win an election but when I am president I will sign the bill so Arizona ours is a fight for the future and it is a fight for freedom across our nation we are witnessing a full-on assault against hardfought hard 21:06 one freedoms and rights the freedom to vote the freedom to be safe from gun violence the freedom to love who you love openly and with pride and the fre freedom of a woman to make decisions about her own body and not have her government telling her what to do and on that last Point understand how we got here when he was president Donald Trump handpicked three members of the United States Supreme Court with the intentions that they would overturn and undo the protections 22:01 of roie Wade and as he intended they did and now in over 20 States in our nation there is a trump abortion ban many like Arizona with no exceptions even for rape or incest and just yesterday in a press conference we got a fresh reminder of what Donald Trump's project 2025 agenda would do it would ban medication abortion in every state but we are not going to let that happen because we trust women 23:00 [Applause] [Music] and when I am president of the United States and when Congress passes the bill to restore reproductive freedoms for every woman in America I will sign it into longw so listen here's the thing that we all know here's the thing we all know Generations generations of Americans before us led the fight for Freedom now the Baton is in our hands each and every one of us so we who believe in the sacred freedom to vote will finally pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and the 24:05 freedom to vote act and we who believe in the freedom to live safe from gun violence will finally pass an assault weapons van Universal background checks and red flag laws so much is on the line in this election and understand this is not 2016 and this is not 2020 you know this time around the stakes are even higher and that's because last month the United States Supreme Court basically just told the former president who has been convicted of fraud that going forward he was he will be effectively immune no matter what he does in the white 25:06 house but but think about what that means think about what that means in this election think about what that means he's been effectively told he will be immune if he's back in the White House think about what that means when you remember Donald Trump has openly vowed if reelected he will be a dictator on day one that he will weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies remember that he even called for the quote termination of the Constitution of the United [Applause] States understand what this means and let us be very clear someone who suggests we should terminate the Constitution of the United 26:01 States should never again stand behind the Seal of the United States President never again never again so Arizona it all comes down to this we are here because we love our country we love our country we love our country and I do believe it is the highest form of patriotism to fight for the ideals of our country that's that's how we Preserve the promise of America and after all the promise of 27:04 America is what makes it possible for governor walls and me to be on the same stage together because think two middle class kids one a daughter of Oakland California who is raised by a working mother had a summer job at McDonald's the other a son of Nebraska Plains who grew up working on a farm think about it only in America is it possible for them together to make it all the way to the White House only in America only in America 28:02 so we together all of us we're running this campaign on behalf of all Americans from Red states to Blue States from the Heartland to the coast and when we are elected we will govern on behalf of all Americans all Americans so Arizona ultimately in this election I do believe we each each one of us we Face a question that question being what kind of country do we want to live in do we want to live in a country of chaos fear and hate or a country of Freedom compassion and rule of 29:08 law and the beauty the beauty of our democracy the beauty of our democracy is that we each have the power to answer that question each one of us in a democracy has the power to answer that question the power is with the people and in the next then 88 days we need you to use your power we need you to knock on some doors we need you to register folks to vote 30:00 we need you to energize to mobilize to [Music] organize and to make your voices heard so Arizona I ask are you ready to make your voices heard do we believe in Freedom do we believe in opportunity do we believe in the promise of America and are we ready to fight for it and when we fight we win God bless you and God bless the United States of America
