Longtime Texas Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee urged her supporters to unite behind President Biden just hours before she passed away.

The 15-term Democrat passed away aged 74 on Friday following a battle with pancreatic cancer that she revealed in June.

Hours before her family revealed her passing, Jackson Lee took to X to share her support for Biden as a growing number of her congressional colleagues call for him to drop out.

'The time is now to unite behind the President and get to work beating Donald Trump — one last time,' she wrote.

Some called on Democrats to come together behind Biden for Jackson Lee's 'dying wish', urging the fractured party to 'honor her' by supporting his floundering re-election campaign.

I have serious doubts she herself ever tweeted.

LOL — the Rats are so incredibly depraved. If Jackson did indeed write that, well... never mind.

I am surprised so many on FR are so kind on the passing of this vile, racist person.

She tweeted just as much as President Biden himself has tweeted...

I was pleasantly surprised she did not call for the final solution for white people.

The aide that thought of this “final tweet” deserves a bonus.

If he drops out, her vote will have to go to someone else.

She didn’t tweet anything right before her death. And she probably never tweeted in her life. My guess is that Trump don’t tweet or truth either. They have staff that do it. And people with the ethics of Sheila Jackson Lee’s staff could tweet anything they like when their boss was almost dead.

Well, socialists really only believe in the material world, so it makes sense...

My kindness extends as far as pancreatic cancer is a terrible way to die, and I am sorry that Lee had to go through it.

Beyond that, no comment.
