Senator Coons Statement on President Biden Decision to End Re-Election Campaign

WASHINGTON-U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.) issued the following statement after President Joe Biden announced he would end his bid for re-election:

"President Biden has an incredible record of public service. He has been the most consequential president of my lifetime, and his legacy of putting his country before himself is only strengthened by his hard decision today to step aside as a candidate for president. I look forward to working with President Biden this fall as Democrats unite to defeat Donald Trump, and I will work hand-in-hand with him as he continues his important efforts to strengthen the middle class at home and our nation's standing abroad."
