BERNIE SAYS NO: Sanders Rejects Schumer as Dem Leader – Who’s Next?
In a shocking move, Senator Bernie Sanders has announced that he will not support Chuck Schumer's bid to remain Democratic leader in the Senate. Citing a need for change, Sanders stated that the recent midterm elections were a call to action for Americans who are struggling to make ends meet. With Democrats set to control at least 54 seats in the Senate, the stage is set for a leadership battle. Sanders, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats, is calling for a vigorous debate about the direction of the party. Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin echoed Sanders' sentiments, saying that any candidate must come forward with a concrete plan for change. As of now, no contender has emerged to challenge Schumer's leadership, but Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen is exploring a potential run.
