Rep. Gluesenkamp Perez Issues Statement on President Biden’s Campaign Exit

WASHINGTON, D.C. – On Sunday, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA-03) released the following statement regarding President Joe Biden:

“My prayers are with the President and his family. I’m sure this was not an easy decision for him to make, and I believe he made it with the national interest in mind.

“My job is to represent everyone in Southwest Washington, and most of them do not have confidence in the President’s fitness to serve. They deserve to have their confidence restored.”

Gluesenkamp Perez was one of the first Democrats calling for Biden to step down given her concerns about his health and fitness to do the job.

Biden has endorsed his Vice President Kamala Harris to be his successor as the Democratic Party nominee.

Who do you think should succeed Biden as the Democratic Party nominee?
