A group of Democratic senators is organizing a meeting next week to discuss the path forward for President Joe Biden following his debate performance.
WASHINGTON — Some key House and Senate Democrats are planning meetings next week where they're expected to discuss the path forward for President Joe Biden.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., will convene a virtual meeting with Democratic committee ranking members on Sunday, three sources told NBC News. The meeting is expected to focus on President Biden, one of the sources said, as he faces calls to step aside as the party’s nominee.
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., meanwhile, is organizing a group of Democratic senators to meet next week to discuss what to do amid concerns about Biden’s electability and the potential for a drag on down-ballot races for the House and Senate, four sources familiar with the outreach told NBC News on Friday.
Though two House Democrats have publicly called for Biden to drop out of the 2024 race following a devastating debate performance last week, and others have privately echoed those calls, senators have so far held their fire on Biden’s future.
Warner’s office declined to comment on the meeting and Jeffries' did not respond to a request for comment.
