In an open letter, the leaders of the group allege the Democratic National Committee is taking away people’s choice in 2024 election

The centrist group No Labels accused the Democratic National Committee of waging “war” against it, fearing the impact of a potential third candidate in a putative 2024 election rematch between the president and Donald Trump.

In an open letter entitled Defending the ‘Soul of the Nation’ and Ending the War on No Labels, the former Connecticut senator and vice-presidential nominee, Joe Lieberman, the former Missouri governor Jay Nixon and the civil rights leader Benjamin Chavis accused the DNC of “a heavy-handed effort to limit Americans’ choices in the 2024 election”.
