John, 

In under four short years, President Biden has presided over one of the most successful and impactful administrations in American history. 

He has grown our economy from the bottom up and stood behind working Americans like no President before him. I am forever grateful to Joe for his incredible service to our country. It is vital that we continue the progress that President Biden began and Vice President Harris is the woman to get the job done. 

In the wake of today’s announcement, Democrats must come together and stand absolutely united as a party.

Every one of us must rededicate ourselves to defeating Donald Trump in November with every ounce of energy we have - knocking on doors, making phone calls, and turning out the vote in battleground states. This November our rights, our values, and our very democracy are at stake.

In solidarity, 

Jan Schakowsky
