Sens. Sanders, Warren join Progressives for Harris Call: 'We have to beat Trump in November'

On a three-hour organizing call with over 100,000 attendees, numerous high-profile progressive democrats came out to support Vice President Kamala's Harris' presidential bid.

Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, Reps. Joaquin Castro, Ro Khanna, Ilhan Omar and Jamie Raskin and UAW President Shawn Fain all showed up as well as members of the uncommitted movement who had not yet endorsed Harris but strongly hope she'll win them over in the next few months.

"The energy and the momentum in this election is on our side. And I am so inspired by the organizing in support of Vice President Harris, starting with the win with black women that mobilized a massive zoom call. And now here tonight, we have progressives coming together," Warren said on the call.

Sanders, who has not officially said he endorses Harris -- although he has encouraged voters to go out and support the candidate -- told attendees that "Trump must be defeated" and Harris "must be elected." He noted that it's "imperative that Democrats gain control over the House and the Senate."

"And we in the progressive movement must do all that we can to make that happen," he added.

"I don't know if I can add to what has already been said tonight, but my message is pretty clear, and that is all of us together must do everything that we can to defeat Donald Trump and elect Kamala Harris as our next president," said Sanders.
