Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) said in a statement that it is 'in the best interests of our country for [Biden] to step aside,' becoming the third senator to call on the president to withdraw.
Rep. Sean Casten (D-Ill.) wrote in a Chicago Tribune op-ed: 'It is with a heavy heart and much personal reflection that I am ... calling on Joe Biden to pass the torch to a new generation.'
Reps. Jared Huffman (D-Calif.), Marc Veasey (D-Texas), Chuy García (D-Ill.) and Mark Pocan (D-Wisc.) said in a joint statement that 'widespread public concerns' about Biden's age are 'jeopardizing what should be a winning campaign.'
Huffman told Axios, 'This is not easy. All of us would prefer not to do this publicly. We would much rather give the President space and grace to get there on his own.'
