President Biden is scheduled to partake in a call with the Democratic Mayors Association in an effort to garner support for his bid for reelection and alleviate doubts about his capacity to handle the responsibilities of the presidency for another four years as an elderly individual. The President's campaign team announced that he will deliver remarks and engage in a question-and-answer session with the attendees, which include prominent figures like New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. Following a lackluster debate performance against former President Trump that reignited concerns about his health and age, President Biden has been in discussions with various elected officials as they contemplate their continued endorsement of his candidacy.

While some House Democrats have called for President Biden to withdraw from the race, others have staunchly expressed their support for him. A divide exists within Congressional Democrats regarding the path forward for Biden’s campaign, with House members demonstrating varying degrees of support, and no Senate Democrat publicly advocating for his withdrawal. New York City Mayor Eric Adams appeared to rebuke those urging President Biden to exit the campaign, emphasizing that it is ultimately the President's decision whether he remains on the 2024 ticket. Similarly, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson conveyed tepid backing for President Biden's candidacy, emphasizing the collective effort needed to defeat Donald Trump in the upcoming election.
