House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said he will be meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) “shortly” as he withholds an endorsement of her for now.

Jeffries, speaking to reporters at the Capitol Monday, is one of the few high-profile Democrats who have yet to rally around Harris after President Joe Biden dropped his 2024 reelection bid on Sunday and named his vice president as his endorsed successor.

“I’m excited for that meeting, and let me say this, that Vice President Kamala Harris has excited the community. She’s excited the House Democratic Caucus, and she’s exciting the country, so I’m looking forward to sitting down with her in person in short order,” said Jeffries, who declined to say when the meeting will take place.

Earlier Monday, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) threw her support behind Harris, a fellow Californian, joining a growing list of other Democrats, including former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Jeffries, Schumer, former President Barack Obama, and first lady Michelle Obama are the major Democrats who have yet to declare their intentions.

“Personally I have known Kamala Harris for decades as rooted in strong values, faith and a commitment to public service,” Pelosi said in a statement Monday. “Politically, make no mistake: Kamala Harris as a woman in politics is brilliantly astute — and I have full confidence that she will lead us to victory in November.”

Harris has sought to shore up support within the Democratic Party quickly and head into the August convention with Biden’s delegates firmly behind her as the Democrats seek to defeat former President Donald Trump.
