House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries commended President Joe Biden's achievements during a news conference on Monday but refrained from explicitly endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris.
Jeffries praised President Biden as a heroic, patriotic, and transformational leader, predicting that he would be remembered as one of the greatest public servants in American history. He acknowledged the challenges faced by the Biden-Harris administration upon taking office, including a public health crisis, an economic crisis, and the aftermath of the January 6th events.
Expressing gratitude for President Biden's leadership, Jeffries also highlighted the strong partnership between Biden and Vice President Harris over the past three and a half years.
When asked about endorsing Harris, Jeffries mentioned an upcoming meeting with Harris and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, indicating his anticipation for the discussion. He acknowledged the excitement generated by Vice President Harris within the community, the House Democratic Caucus, and the nation.
Reports suggest that Schumer and Jeffries are expected to endorse Harris imminently, with sources indicating that the endorsement could come as early as today.
