The revote is not related to Hogg&#8217;s push to primary elected Democrats, but it came after Hogg drew stiff criticism over the plan.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is clear that there is a fundamental disagreement about the role of a Vice Chair \u2014 and it&#8217;s okay to have disagreements. What isn&#8217;t okay is allowing this to remain our focus when there is so much more we need to be focused on,&#8221; Hogg said in a statement issued through his political action committee, Leaders We Deserve. &#8220;Ultimately, I have decided to not run in this upcoming election so the party can focus on what really matters. I need to do this work with Leaders We Deserve, and it is going to remain my number one mission to build the strongest party possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>DNC Chair Ken Martin said in a statement, &#8220;I commend David for his years of activism, organizing and fighting for his generation, and while I continue to believe he is a powerful voice for this party, I respect his decision to step back from his post as Vice Chair.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hogg, 25, rose to fame after he survived the deadly 2018 Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting and helped lead the March for our Lives pro-gun control movement. He was elected to one of the DNC&#8217;s vice chair positions earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Months after taking on the role, Hogg <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/davidhogg111\/status\/1912680928834449906\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">announced<\/a> Leaders We Deserve will invest $20 million to support primary challenges against elected Democrats who are &#8220;either unwilling or unable to meet the moment&#8221; and are &#8220;asleep at the wheel while Trump is demolishing the economy.&#8221; The group will also back young Democrats aiming to flip GOP-held seats, he said.<\/p>\n<p>The move came as Democrats \u2014 stung by last year&#8217;s presidential defeat and hobbled as the minority party in both chambers of Congress \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/democrats-trump-elon-musk-doge-protest-91281e059b7e0d807a3dbb07ff638ebb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">debate<\/a> how best to push back against President Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But Hogg&#8217;s announcement drew scrutiny from some Democratic heavyweights who believe party leaders should stay neutral in primaries and focus on ousting elected Republicans. Martin <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/kenmartin73\/status\/1921244653967307194\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">has argued<\/a> DNC officials should be neutral because it avoids the perception that &#8220;party insiders could quietly influence outcomes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Matt Bennett, a campaign aide to former President Bill Clinton who now works for the centrist group Third Way, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ThirdWayMattB\/status\/1912487953751814331\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">called it<\/a> &#8220;insane behavior from a DNC official.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hogg has defended the Leaders We Deserve initiative, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/video\/parkland-survivor-david-hogg-more-work-to-do-fsu-shooting\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">telling<\/a> CBS News&#8217; Major Garrett in April, &#8220;We have to show our base right now that we are doing everything we can to fight back against Donald Trump, and that includes holding ourselves accountable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/joe-walsh\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Joe  Walsh<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Joe Walsh is a senior editor for digital politics at CBS News.
