House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi addressed a packed room of over 900 North Carolina Democrats at the state party's annual "Unity Dinner" in Raleigh. Pelosi sidestepped deep discussion of President Joe Biden's re-election bid, sparking further speculation about his standing within the party.
Instead, Pelosi revisited battles over budget and policy in Congress, underscoring the importance of public education funding and warning against the Republican agenda. She praised Biden's policies but concentrated on the party's mobilization efforts in the months ahead.
As questions swirl about Biden's ability to defeat Trump, North Carolina Democrats remain divided, with many steadfast in their support. Pelosi's address aimed to rally Democrats while leaving Biden's future in the balance.
