In response to increasing calls for President Biden to withdraw from the forthcoming election, Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin has firmly announced his continued support for the President. While certain Democratic members and others are withdrawing their support for President Biden, Mayor Woodfin, along with other elected officials in Birmingham, chooses to stand firmly with the president.
Although WBRC reporters could not ascertain Mayor Woodfin’s stand on President Biden’s presidential campaign in person at the Thursday town hall meeting, he made it lucid in his official statement that he remains in full support of the president.
Biden’s Impact on Birmingham
Mayor Woodfin’s statement noted that the Biden administration has made a significant impact on Birmingham, with transformative investments made through grants such as the CHOICE neighborhoods and reconnecting communities. He emphasized that these initiatives have greatly benefitted the city of Birmingham.
Mayor’s Stand
In his statement, Mayor Woodfin said, “I fully support President Biden and his vision for our nation. I participated in the president’s call this week with mayors. He was steadfast in his commitment to lead our nation for the next four years. The people selected President Biden as our nominee, not politicos and mega donors. It is time to stand by him and support his agenda to grow our middle class, make healthcare more accessible and affordable, and revitalize our cities.”
The Mayor further affirmed that the investments made by the Biden-Harris administration have been pivotal in transforming cities like Birmingham.
Mayor Woodfin remains a keen proponent of Biden, pointing to the president’s work over the four years of his first term and hoping for continued progress in a potential second term.
As President Biden faces increasing opposition within the Democratic party, the unwavering support of individuals such as Mayor Woodfin serves to strengthen his campaign bid further.
Ideal Time to Support Biden
The Mayor concludes, “The Biden-Harris administration is making transformative investments in cities like Birmingham through grants like CHOICE Neighborhoods and Reconnecting Communities. I support him to finish the job in a second term.”
According to Mayor Woodfin, this is indeed the perfect time to offer unwavering support to President Biden. As cities like Birmingham continue to witness transformational changes stemming from Biden’s policies, the Mayor sees this as more reason to stand by him and enable his second run for the presidency.
