The speech marks a crucial moment for Biden as he continues to try to convince voters he can carry out a second term if reelected in November. A handful of Democratic lawmakers have openly called on Biden to withdraw from the race, with others suggesting Vice President Kamala Harris should replace him at the top of the ticket.
