News Release

Dear President Biden:

Birthdays can be a reminder of the preciousness of all human life. In that spirit, we offer our sincere wishes for a happy birthday and good health for a long time to come.

As you may know, the Don’t Run Joe campaign has begun grassroots outreach in the first-in-the-nation state of New Hampshire and will be expanding to other primary states. You have long advocated for civility in political arenas, and we are in full accord with that goal. Our campaign will continue to focus on profound issues of policy – including health care, corporate price-gouging, the climate emergency, bloated military spending and the need for low-cost college.

Your 2020 defeat of Donald Trump, made possible by grassroots organizing in swing states, was a crucial historic achievement. Looking ahead, we will continue to urge that you free yourself from the political considerations and distractions of candidacy by announcing that you will not seek re-election. Such an announcement would enable you to concentrate on improving your presidency, and it would clear the path for progressive leaders to guide the Democratic Party to victory in 2024.

Sincerely,

The Don’t Run Joe campaign
