Colorado Rep. Brittany Pettersen has recently joined a growing number of congressional Democrats in urging President Joe Biden to step aside from the 2024 campaign. In a new statement posted online, the freshman representative expressed her support for this call to action.
This move by Rep. Pettersen adds to the voices of more than a dozen members of Congress who have already called on President Biden to consider stepping aside. The collective sentiment among these lawmakers reflects a growing concern within the Democratic Party about the upcoming 2024 election.
While the specific reasons behind Rep. Pettersen's decision to join this call have not been explicitly outlined in the statement, it is clear that there is a sense of urgency among some Democrats to explore alternative options for the party's presidential candidate in the next election cycle.
President Biden, who has not yet officially announced his intentions for the 2024 campaign, continues to face scrutiny and pressure from within his own party. The calls for him to step aside suggest a desire for new leadership and a fresh approach as Democrats prepare for the next presidential race.
As the debate within the Democratic Party intensifies, it remains to be seen how President Biden will respond to these calls for him to consider stepping aside. The coming months are likely to be pivotal in shaping the landscape of the 2024 election and determining the direction of the Democratic Party moving forward.
