Democratic Discord Grows as House Dems Demand Schumer Resignation

News summary

Democratic discord is escalating as House Democrats publicly call for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's resignation, citing dissatisfaction with his leadership amid President Trump's second term. Rep. Glenn Ivey (D-Md.) was the first to suggest new leadership, criticizing Schumer for voting alongside Republicans on a budget bill that could harm essential programs like Medicaid. His comments reflect a growing sentiment among party members, supported by Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Ill.), who also indicated Schumer should consider stepping down. A petition for Schumer's ouster has gained around 25,000 signatures, and recent polling shows the Democratic Party's favorability has hit a record-low of 29 percent, with many voters feeling disconnected from party leadership. Additionally, a survey by the progressive group Our Revolution revealed that nearly 90% of its members believe Schumer should resign, highlighting significant frustration within the party base. These developments underscore a broader crisis of confidence in Democratic leadership as they seek to effectively oppose Trump’s agenda.
