Petitions to replace Chuck Schumer pass 100,000 signatures day after launch
A Newsweek report says two petitions urging Senate Democrats to pick a new majority leader instead of Chuck Schumer passed 100,000 combined signatures a day after both launched, following the Democrats' midterm wins, with a parallel petition against Hakeem Jeffries as House speaker drawing over 762,000 signatures and Mark Ruffalo's endorsement. Schumer said the issue is not him, while senators-elect Annie Andrews, Peggy Flanagan, and Abdul El-Sayed signaled they want new leadership.
