Has the Congressional Black Caucus withdrawn its endorsement of Hillary over "Cautious Politician"?

[Nye Bevan]

If they don't, does that make them just as racist as Bill de Blasio?

3. Congressional Black Caucus never endorsed Clinton

You are thinking of the Congressional Black Caucus PAC which is not same thing. It has a couple board members that are in Congressional Black Caucus but it made up mostly of lobbyist

REP. GREGORY MEEKS:Yes, the Congressional Black Caucus does not ever endorse in any race at any time, because it is a composite group that can include and does include Republicans as well as Democrats. And it is a nonpolitical entity that just focuses on legislation. The political wing of the Congressional Black Caucus is a—is the Congressional Black Caucus political action committee. It is the only group of the Congressional Black Caucus that is not a 501(c)(3) or (c)(4) or anything of that nature, and it does engage in political actions. And so—and it has a board. And the board considers, as part of its consideration, where the majority of members are in the Congressional Black Caucus.
