House Democrats are urging Biden to not run for re-election in 2024: sources

Pressure is mounting on President Biden as more and more Democrats express concerns about his ability to run for office in 2024. Efforts by various groups of House Democrats are being made to call on Biden to step aside as the nominee if he does not address these concerns soon.

It was reported that a group of 25 House Democrats is preparing to urge Biden to step aside if he does not prove he is up to the task within a matter of days. The effort includes vulnerable Democrats in swing districts as well as left-wing lawmakers in safe seats.

Questions about Biden’s physical and mental condition have been raised following his debate performance with former President Trump. Democrats are now questioning whether Biden is the best candidate to defeat Trump, who many see as a threat to democracy.

Rep. Lloyd Doggett of Texas became the first sitting House Democrat to call for Biden to withdraw from the race. Doggett stated, “My decision to make these strong reservations public is not done lightly nor does it in any way diminish my respect for all that President Biden has achieved.”

Reps. Jared Golden of Maine and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington, two vulnerable Democrats in this election cycle, also expressed doubts about Biden’s ability to defeat Trump.

Biden’s allies have been quick to point out that he has been in contact with Congressional Democratic leaders and has taken steps to address concerns. He has agreed to a sit-down interview with ABC News and has announced a press conference in the coming days.

As the pressure mounts on President Biden, the political landscape is becoming increasingly tense. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as Democrats navigate the delicate decision of whether or not Biden should continue his 2024 campaign.
