Van Hollen’s Challenge to Chuck Schumer - The American Prospect
The American Prospect's Robert Kuttner reports on Sen. Chris Van Hollen's challenge to Chuck Schumer for Senate majority leader ahead of the December 1 election, citing Schumer's failed primary meddling in Michigan and Maine, skipped funding for Democrats in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Florida, and complaints across the caucus. Van Hollen claims double-digit support and pledges on Iran war funding, minimum wage, ICE, and Medicare for All; Schumer backer Angus King asks, "Why would you fire the manager when you just won the World Series?"
