Jim Clyburn to Play More Active Role in Biden’s Campaign

Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) stepped down Wednesday from his position in House leadership in part to spend more time working on Biden’s reelection campaign, Time reports.

“While he had already been working as a Biden surrogate, Clyburn is expected to play a more active role in the President’s reelection campaign, as a voice with deep experience understanding Biden’s coalition and how to reach Black voters, said the person familiar with the decision. Clyburn is also likely to travel to key states to talk to voters for Biden’s campaign.”
