New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is among 50 Democrats across the nation selected for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris' re-election campaign National Advisory Board, the president's campaign announced Wednesday.

Also on the list is Democratic U.S. Rep. Grace Meng, who represents New York's 6th Congressional District.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will serve as chair of the board.

The purpose is to help the campaign's effort to build a voter coalition that will elect Biden to another four years in the White House by engaging "directly with voters through grassroots efforts and events in key battleground states."

“The stakes of this election couldn’t be higher,” Biden said in a statement. “Our freedom and democracy are on the line. I’m grateful to this group of diverse and dynamic leaders who will help us win the battle for the soul of America and finish the job for the American people.”

Biden stumped for Hochul numerous times last fall in her successful bid for a full term leading New York.
