Together, we will fight. And together, we will win.”
“My very first decision as the party’s nominee in 2020 was to choose Kamala Harris as my running mate. And it was the best decision I ever made. Today, I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be our party’s nominee this year. Democrats: It’s time to unite and beat Trump. Let’s do it.”
