This is the best summary I could come up with:

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in California and a close ally of former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), on Wednesday became the latest and most prominent House member to call on Biden to leave the race.

Even before last month’s presidential debate, in which Biden repeatedly stumbled, Democrats’ internal polls showed his support trailing his 2020 levels by significant margins in key districts, according to people familiar with the data.

In private meetings with larger groups of lawmakers, Biden has disputed the notion he is losing to Trump or that he would hurt other Democrats and has cited polls as a defense, although he has not specified which ones prove his point, according to two of the people briefed on the matter.

Biden had a phone conversation last Friday with Rep. Suzan DelBene (D-Wash.), the chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which coordinates the party’s House races, according to a person familiar with the call.

In recent days, Democratic lawmakers and even top strategists working on Biden’s re-election effort have grown increasingly concerned that the president is not getting a full picture of the state of the race.

The back-and-forth is playing out alongside a related dispute over whether to proceed with a virtual roll call that would formally nominate Biden several weeks before the Democratic National Convention on Aug. 19-22.
