It's more technical then that. They're a 501(c)(3) non-profit, which has some clear rules around politics. They can't specifically endorse a candidate. If they invite one candidate for a race, they also have to invite the others in the same race. Those candidates don't necessarily have to show up, but they have to be offered the chance.

Mind you, churches make a mockery of these rules all the time and get away with it.
It seems the NABJ invited both Kamala and the trumpster fire. Kamala's team couldn't make the date and suggested video conference. The head of NABJ then cancelled Kamala's appearance, rather than make it work. Not sure why but they choose that but we got delicious news out of it.
