Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) said he is endorsing 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, joining a number of former 2020 presidential candidates who have endorsed the former vice president.

“The answer to hatred & division is to reignite our spirit of common purpose. [Biden] won’t only win - he'll show there’s more that unites us than divides us,” Booker wrote on Twitter on March 9. “He'll restore honor to the Oval Office and tackle our most pressing challenges. That’s why I’m proud to endorse Joe.”
