Welcome to our blog! Today we are discussing the recent statements made by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez expressing her support for President Biden amidst some calls for him to step aside. As one of the most prominent progressives in the Democratic caucus, her support carries weight and significance.
Ms. Ocasio-Cortez affirmed her support for President Biden, emphasizing that he is the nominee and is committed to staying in the race. She highlighted the importance of focusing on the issues at hand and turning attention back to the actions of former President Donald J. Trump.
Speaking to reporters outside the Capitol, she stated, “Joe Biden is our nominee. He is not leaving this race, he is in this race, and I support him.” She urged Democrats to concentrate on winning in November and to address crucial issues such as expanding Medicare and Social Security and making housing more affordable.
