Democrats and Public Figures Urge Biden to Withdraw

Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) has become the fourth Senate Democrat to publicly call for President Joe Biden to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race, citing concerns over Biden's recent performance and the need to focus on critical issues like job growth and Social Security. This follows similar calls from other Democrats, including Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA). Brown's call is part of a broader trend where 35 Congressional Democrats and various prominent figures, such as George Clooney and Mark Pincus, have urged Biden to step aside. Despite this mounting pressure, Biden remains defiant and plans to continue his campaign. Organized labor groups, including California's State Building and Construction Trades Council, continue to support Biden, emphasizing his accomplishments for union workers.
