Elizabeth Warren Biography


[Editor's Note: On Thursday, Mar. 5, 2020, Elizabeth Warren suspended her campaign for president. In a statement published on medium.com, "The Fight Goes On," Warren stated, "I want to start with the news. I want all of you to hear it first, and I want you to hear it straight from me: Today, I’m suspending our campaign for president... So if you leave with only one thing, it must be this: Choose to fight only righteous fights, because then when things get tough — and they will — you will know that there is only option ahead of you. Nevertheless, you must persist. You should all be so proud of what we’ve done together — what you have done over this past year."]
