Governor Laura Kelly is set to participate in a pivotal meeting between Democratic governors and President Joe Biden, scheduled for Wednesday evening at the White House. This meeting aims to reinforce unity among Democratic leaders amidst recent calls for Biden to reconsider his reelection bid following a challenging debate performance. Governor Kelly, known for her steadfast support of Biden despite occasional differences, reaffirmed her endorsement based on his bipartisan achievements, describing him as a person of integrity and character. Kelly's attendance underscores her commitment to backing Biden through November's election.

While Kelly maintains her support, the meeting will also feature prominent Democratic figures speculated as potential successors to Biden, including Governors Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Wes Moore, and Andy Beshear. Despite speculation and polling data showing Biden trailing his opponents, including former President Trump, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre emphasized Biden's determination to continue his campaign without hesitation.

Kelly's participation in this gathering signifies a unified front as Democrats strategize and support Biden's candidacy moving forward.
