President Joe Biden said he believes that Democrat and former Los Angeles City Council President Nury Martinez should resign from city council following a leaked audio recording where the councilwoman made racist remarks about a colleague's son.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Tuesday during a press briefing that the president has been following the situation in Los Angeles and that he was glad that "one of the participants in that conversation has resigned, but they all should."
"The language that was used and tolerated during that conversation was unacceptable and it was appalling," Jean-Pierre continued. "They should all step down."
