Sherrod Brown urges Biden to halt reelection campaign – Washington Examiner
The summary is about vulnerable Democrat Senator Sherrod Brown asking President Joe Biden to suspend his reelection bid. Brown, who is facing a tough reelection campaign, is one of four Senate Democrats who have urged Biden to step back from running again. This request comes at a time of increasing pressure on the Biden administration and highlights internal divisions within the Democratic Party. Brown and the other Senators believe that Biden’s low approval ratings and struggles with passing legislation make him a liability for the party in the upcoming midterms. They argue that Biden’s reelection bid could hurt their chances of retaining their Senate seats and maintaining control of Congress. Brown’s request to suspend Biden’s reelection bid is seen as a desperate move to protect vulnerable Democrats from potential backlash against the President.
Vulnerable Democrat Sherrod Brown asks Biden to suspend reelection bid
Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), who faces a competitive reelection campaign, became the fourth Senate Democrat to call on President Joe Biden to drop out of the race.
“Over the last few weeks, I’ve heard from Ohioans on important issues, such as how to continue to grow jobs in our state, give law enforcement the resources to crack down on fentanyl, protect Social Security and Medicare from cuts, and prevent the ongoing efforts to impose a national abortion ban,” Brown said in a statement to NBC News. “These are the issues Ohioans care about, and it is my job to keep fighting for them.”
“I agree with the many Ohioans who have reached out to me,” Brown added. “At this critical time, our full attention must return to these important issues. I think the President should end his campaign.”
Brown brings the total number of congressional Democrats calling on Biden to suspend his campaign to 35, with 12 others asking him to step aside Friday.
