Chuck Schumer And Hakeem Jeffries Endorse Kamala Harris
HuffPost
The two top-ranking Democrats said the vice president wanted to earn support for the nomination "from the grassroots up, not top down."
The two highest-ranking Democrats in Congress, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the party’s new nominee for president on Tuesday.
At a press conference with the two New York lawmakers in attendance, Schumer said he and Jeffries had been respecting Harris’ wishes to earn support for the nomination “from the grassroots up, not top down” and were waiting on publicly endorsing her.
“Now that the process has played out ... we are here today to throw our support behind Vice President Kamala Harris,” Schumer said, noting that Harris had earned support from a majority of Democratic delegates.
“She said she would work to earn the support of our party, and boy, has she done so in quick order,” he continued.
Harris raised a record-breaking $81 million in the first 24 hours of her campaign, largely from small donors and first-time contributors in the 2024 election cycle. She’s also raked in endorsements from a majority of her party in Congress and every Democratic governor.
