Over 1,400 Black women leaders and allies, led by Black Voters Matter co-founders LaTosha Brown and Cliff Albright, along with National Legal Director April England Albright, have signed a petition firmly supporting President Biden’s re-election. The action comes in response to internal Democratic party pressure for Biden to step aside.
The petition emphasizes the Biden-Harris administration’s legislative achievements and the importance of unity within the party. The letter states, “We reject all efforts to disregard this fact or to circumvent the will of millions of voters who participated in the democratic process.”
It criticizes attempts to undermine Biden based on debate performance and unreliable polls, calling such dissent unproductive and urging it to cease immediately.
Highlighting the pivotal role of Black women in securing Democratic victories, the petition notes that when Black women vote in record numbers, Democrats win the White House.
