President Joe Biden on Wednesday said he would support Major League Baseball moving its All-Star Game from Atlanta as a reprisal for a new election reform law passed by the state legislature and signed into law by Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp.
“I think that today’s professional athletes are acting incredibly responsibly. I would strongly support them doing that,” Biden said. “People look to them, they’re leaders. Look at what’s happened with the NBA as well. Look at what’s happened across the board. The people who’ve been victimized the most are the people who are the leaders in these various sports and it’s just not right.”
