Democrat Senate Minority Leader and New York Sen. Charles Schumer is facing a significant challenge to his leadership role in the Democratic Party. Many Democrats are furious that Schumer caved into Republicans and voted to invoke cloture so that the continuing resolution to fund the government could be passed.

The liberal organizing group Indivisible said Saturday it was calling for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to step down from his leadership role, the latest fallout after he backed a GOP bill to keep the government open.

After weeks of frustration with President Donald Trump, the Democratic base has turned its ire on a new target: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and the 9 Democratic senators who voted to advance a Republican funding bill rather than shut down the government.
