President Joe Biden announced yesterday that he will not be running for reelection. In his statement, the president expressed, “I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.”
President Biden has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as his preferred candidate for the next election.
The Colorado Democratic Party released a statement, praising President Biden’s decision: “President Biden’s decision to step out of the race is a stunning act of courage and patriotism that is all too lacking in American politics these days. President Biden’s decades of service have made this country better off, and he has been a friend of Colorado, creating hundreds of thousands of new jobs, designating Camp Hale as a national monument, and keeping Space Command in Colorado Springs. The entire Colorado Democratic Party expresses enormous gratitude to President Biden.”
