Hawaii Rep. Ed Case made headlines on Tuesday by joining a group of House Democrats in calling for President Joe Biden to step aside. Case emphasized that the current difficult times and realities necessitate tough decisions, and he believes that it is in the best interest of the country for Biden not to seek re-election as President.

Case clarified that his stance is not a reflection of Biden's character or record, stating that if those were factors, there would be no decision to be made. His decision to ask Biden to withdraw from the 2024 race adds to a growing chorus within the Democratic Party, with Case becoming the fourth Democrat on Tuesday to make such a request.
