U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN) has announced his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination, challenging incumbent President Joe Biden. Phillips, a vocal critic of Biden's re-election bid, believes that the election is "not about the past, this is an election about the future" and that a younger leader is needed to take the reins. He has yet to officially declare his candidacy, but is exploring the possibility of competing in New Hampshire's unsanctioned primary and has said he will focus on issues such as health care, climate change, and economic justice.
