Democratic governors taking strong stands for gun control and abortion rights aren't usurping President Joe Biden when it comes to party leadership, the White House stressed on Wednesday.
During a press gaggle en route to Cleveland, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked about Gov. J.B. Pritzker's (D-IL) statements on guns and Gov. Gavin Newsom's (D-CA) statements about abortion, "arguably the most outspoken voices of the Democratic Party on both of these very fragile issues."
