"Andrew Yang Endorses Dean Phillips, Criticizes Biden, and Joins Phillips at Voter Events"

Andrew Yang endorses US Rep. Dean Phillips for president, citing Phillips' prioritization of country over personal aspirations. Phillips has adopted policies supported by Yang, including Medicare for All and Universal Basic Income pilot programs, as he aims to appeal to progressive voters in his challenge to President Joe Biden. Yang, who previously sought the Democratic presidential nomination, has broken up with the Democratic Party and registered as an independent. The New Hampshire Democratic primary is noncompliant with the DNC's nominating calendar, and while Biden did not register, state Democrats have mounted a write-in campaign on his behalf. Phillips' campaign is focused on the Granite State, hoping to kickstart his bid with Biden absent from the ballot there.
