Michigan Senator Debbie Stabenow released a statement after President Joe Biden announced that he would be dropping out of the 2024 race.
“President Joe Biden has done more for Michigan during his presidency than any other president in my lifetime. In the past three and a half years, we’ve fixed thousands of roads and bridges, boosted manufacturing, brought jobs home, lowered the cost of prescription drugs and seriously tackled the climate crisis. President Biden’s long career of public service has truly improved the lives of Americans in so many important ways. His decision today is another courageous action in his long history of service to our country.”
Biden announced on Sunday afternoon that he was ending his reelection bid and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris. Democrats are scheduled to hold their convention in Chicago on Aug. 19-22.
