Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, is going to need young voters, many who identify as progressive and had supported Sanders' campaign, to win the 2020 presidential election.
"We think it is important that if vice president Biden wants to win the youth vote, he has to move on the issues, so that when young people are looking at candidates and looking at the different differences between the candidates on the issue, that they can get more excited that they see candidates that are actually championing what they care for," said Sarah Audelo, executive director of Alliance for Youth Action.
The policy groups will meet ahead of the Democratic National Convention in August to make recommendations for the Democratic National Committee platform and to Biden. Matt Hill, deputy national press secretary for the Biden campaign, said in statement that"progressive voters are a key part of our growing coalition to defeat Trump and enact bold change that will tackle the most pressing issues Americans face right now, including rebuilding our economy after the crisis, expanding health care, making college affordable, and more."
The Biden campaign also recently was endorsed by the Progressive Turnout Project, which says it will the invest $52.5 million to knock on more than 10.5 million doors in 17 presidential and Senate battleground states this year. Biden has been criticized by some on the left over his vote for the Iraq War and for his previous stance supporting the Hyde Amendment, a long-standing law that blocks federal funding for abortion in most cases. Biden last summer said he no longer supports the amendment.showed that the vast majority of Sanders supporters said they will vote for Biden in the general election.
