Yesterday, voters made it very clear that they want a new generation of Democratic fighters.
We need a leader in the Senate who is capable of leading that fight.
It’s time for Senate Democrats to choose new leadership.
Contact your senators and demand they oppose another term for Chuck Schumer as leader — and insist on a public and transparent process for choosing new leadership.
Schumer has a lower approval rating than Trump. After our seismic wins, we need new leadership to define this new era of politics.
@indivisibleteam Ossoff deserves to lead, he pulled off a stunning set of coattails in Georgia
@darwinwoodka @indivisibleteam
Ossoff may be running for president (in spite of his campaign promise). The scuttlebut is that Chris Van Hollen may challenge Schumer. Van Hollen is not the most dynamic, but he is a solid progressive and may have the right skill set for Majority Leader. Would also take Elizabeth Warren if she wanted the job.
@indivisibleteam Also, we need new leadership in the House! Hakeem Jeffries offering to work with Republicans less than 6 hours after Dems regained the majority, shows he's not up to the moment!
The American people did not elect Democrats by historic margins just to bend the knee and go back to business as usual. Senate Democrats need to listen to the voters and turn the page on status quo politics.
@indivisibleteam There's a danger that Democrats will mistake yesterday's result as enthusiasm for them rather than merely as disgust for Trump. But I agree it's incumbent on them now to demonstrate being different than what we've had under the GOP trifecta.

NO TO SCHUMER
Right now there is a concerted campaign by Schumer and his allies in the media to make you think he is the inevitable Majority Leader.
Don't believe anything you read.
Here is an analysis of Schumer support from back in August showing a whip count for the 2027 Senate assuming the Dems won a bunch of seats. And they won even more! [The detail is in the subsequent reply.]
Chuck Schumer does not have the votes to become Majority leader.
