Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) became the third Democratic senator to call on President Joe Biden to step aside Friday as the pressure continues to grow.
“While the decision to withdraw from the campaign is President Biden’s alone, I believe it is in the best interests of our country for him to step aside,” the New Mexico senator said in a press release. “By passing the torch, he would secure his legacy as one of our nation’s greatest leaders and allow us to unite behind a candidate who can best defeat Donald Trump and safeguard the future of our democracy.”
