Watch live: Jeffries speaks amid growing calls for Biden to step aside
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) is slated to deliver remarks Thursday as calls for President Biden to end his reelection campaign increase.
Democratic lawmakers and donors are expressing uncertainty about whether Biden will be able to pass several key tests over the next few days to remain the party’s likely nominee for president.
And while they acknowledge that it’s ultimately up to Biden to decide whether to continue his bid for a second term, some are asking him to look at the polls and consider if he is up to the task of beating former President Trump in November.
Hakeem's remarks are scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m. EDT.
Watch the video above.
