Barack, Michelle Obama endorse Kamala Harris for president

“As a Senator, she was one of the strongest voices holding the Trump administration accountable,” the Obamas said in a joint statement

Former Democratic President Barack Obama and his wife, former first lady Michelle Obama, on Friday endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president.

President Biden on Sunday ended his 2024 reelection bid and put his support behind Harris to become the party nominee to challenge GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.

“We agree with President Biden – choosing Kamala was one of the best decisions he’s made,” the former president and his wife said in a joint statement. “She has the resume to prove it: As a prosecutor, she defended the Constitution and fought for folks who deserve a fair shake. As California’s Attorney General, she worked hard to ensure everyone was treated fairly, no matter who they are or who they love.”

In connection with the endorsement, the Harris campaign also released a video showing the vice president taking a call from the Obamas.

It means so much to have your endorsements, @MichelleObama and @BarackObama.

“As a senator, she was one of the strongest voices holding the Trump administration accountable,” the Obamas also said in the statement. “And, as Vice President, she helped lead the charge on expanding the Affordable Care Act, combating climate change, fighting for reproductive freedom, equality, and the rule of law.”
