President Joe Biden's 2024 campaign team is slowly taking shape ahead of an expected reelection announcement.
Biden is eyeing Julie Chavez Rodriguez to manage his campaign for a second term, and he is also considering Democratic operative Michael Tyler for a key communications role, according to multiple reports. A decision has not been made about Tyler.

Multiple reports have suggested that Biden is circling around Tuesday for a reelection campaign launch this week, marking the anniversary of his 2020 election announcement nearly four years ago. The president recorded a campaign launch video after his trip to the United Kingdom and Ireland, the Washington Post reported.
Chavez Rodriguez is one of the most well-known Latinas in the Biden White House, and she serves as the director of the White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs and a senior adviser to Biden.
She also served as the deputy campaign manager of Biden's 2020 election team, which was managed by Jen O'Malley Dillon, who is now the White House's deputy chief of staff. Chavez Rodriguez is the granddaughter of the prominent labor activist Cesar Chavez. Biden has a bust of him in the White House.
Meanwhile, Tyler has worked at high levels across the Democratic Party over recent years, including as the chief of staff for the Democratic National Committee and Sen. Cory Booker’s (D-NJ) 2020 presidential campaign.
Tyler also has experience working on technical ballot problems.

Once Biden enters the 2024 fray, he is expected to lean on a more active campaign with public events, in contrast to the pandemic-straddled 2020 campaign he ran amid COVID-19 suppression efforts.
Some 70% of all voters believe that Biden shouldn't seek another term in office, but he maintains higher favorability ratings than his leading Republican rival, former President Donald Trump, according to an NBC poll.
