Bennie G. Thompson’s official statement of endorsement for Kamala Harris.

Dear Americans,

Throughout my time in Congress, I have had the privilege of serving under six United States
Presidents. However, it was a particularly profound honor for me to serve under President
Joe Biden. I was thrilled when he was elected because I believed he was a genuinely honest
man who would do everything in his power to guide America through the challenging times
we were facing. From that moment to the present, I can confidently say that President Joe
Biden has indeed done just that. His policies and efforts to support hardworking Americans
could not have come at a more crucial time. I want to express my gratitude to President Biden
for being a leader who prioritizes the needs of the American people over politics, the wealthy,
other authorities, or even himself. His selflessness and humility are truly commendable, and I
thank him for all that he has done for us.
As a senior member of the United States House of Representatives, I would like to publicly
endorse our Vice President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic Presidential nominee
. Madam
Vice President, I know you can carry us through the finish line.
To my fellow democrats and all Americans, for the past few weeks I have been focused on
spreading positivity and hope within our party. However, it’s now time for all of us to come
together and support our Vice-President as she faces a challenging battle. She needs to feel the
love and support of the people. We must put an end to the division within our party and fight
to protect our democracy from those who seek to destroy it. The time has come for us to
stand united as the people Joe and Kamala fight so hard for. Let’s show the other side who
we truly are when we stand united.
Finally, whatever you do, Keep the Faith!
