The Call for Change: Rep. Greg Stanton Urges President Biden to Step Down
In a bold move, Arizona Congressman Greg Stanton released a statement on Thursday calling for President Biden to “pass the torch” to new leaders. This call to action comes as a growing number of Congress members are urging Biden to step out of the presidential race.
Stanton, who was one of Biden’s early supporters in 2020, emphasized the need for a candidate who can effectively combat the “existential threat” posed by Trump. As a former mayor of Phoenix representing a Democratic-leaning district, Stanton’s voice carries weight in the emerging swing state of Arizona.
He joins a small but significant group of representatives calling for Biden to step down, highlighting the urgency of the current political climate. In a powerful statement, Stanton emphasized the importance of passing the torch to a new generation of leaders to address the challenges facing the country.
