Sanders urges Biden to embrace progressive message for 2024 victory.
Sen. Bernie Sanders Urges President Biden to Embrace Progressivism for Reelection
During an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) emphasized the importance of a progressive message for President Joe Biden’s reelection in 2024. Sanders recently delivered a speech highlighting the significance of Democrats showing their support for the working class in the upcoming presidential election. In his interview, Sanders commended Biden’s accomplishments but stressed the need for further action.
“So the point is, in my view, the president should tout his very good record,” Sanders said. ”We have got to continue to defend women’s right to control their own bodies. But we have to deal with the reality of life today; that’s what Roosevelt did in 1936. And that is to understand that we have massive levels of corporate greed in every part of society.”
“The very rich are getting richer, working people are struggling,” he continued. “We have got to make it clear; we’re going to stand with those workers and have a healthcare system that works for all, lower the cost of prescription drugs, raise the minimum wage to a livable wage. So I think that was the message of yesterday.”
Sanders also took the opportunity to criticize the Republican Party, expressing agreement with his previous assessment that it is “absurd” for the party to gain support among the working class. He attributed this phenomenon to the perceived lack of progressivism within the Democratic Party.
Although Sanders was the runner-up in the 2020 Democratic primary against Biden, he has since become a vocal advocate for the president.
