Prominent lawmakers from the Congressional Black Caucus have come to the defense of President Joe Biden amid calls from some House Democrats for him to step aside. Ohio Rep. Joyce Beatty, a former chair of the CBC, emphasized the importance of unity within the Democratic Party, stating that they should not be turning against their own president.
Beatty, who recently spoke at the Essence Festival in New Orleans alongside other CBC members, expressed disappointment over reports of House Democrats calling for Biden's resignation. She highlighted that the majority of the party remains supportive of the President, with only a small fraction advocating for his departure.
