California Rep. Norma Torres recently expressed her support for President Joe Biden as the Democratic nominee for the upcoming election. Torres emphasized the importance of Democratic lawmakers rallying behind Biden and allowing him to lead the party forward.
Torres stated, 'This case is closed.' She highlighted that President Biden has made it clear that he intends to run for reelection, urging her colleagues to unite in support of his candidacy. She emphasized the need for Democrats to focus on winning the House, retaining control of the Senate, and ultimately regaining the White House.
Despite some dissent within the party, with a number of Democratic House members and one senator calling for Biden to step down from his reelection bid, Torres reiterated Biden's commitment to staying in the race. She mentioned that Biden had a candid discussion with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, reaffirming his determination to run a strong campaign.
Torres's remarks come at a crucial time as the Democratic Party navigates internal discussions about its leadership and strategy for the upcoming election. Her call for unity and support for President Biden reflects a broader sentiment among many party members who believe in Biden's ability to lead the party to victory.
