Schumer led Senate Democrats in fighting Trump over healthcare, period.
If you think Senate leaders can control members of their caucus, you don’t know much about the Senate. And before you say “McConnell,” remember why we still have the ACA when Trump and McConnell wanted it gone.

It's been clear for two years now that Chuck Schumer lacks the mental acuity to continue to serve as a US Senator, much less as Democratic leader. He needs to step down and open a slot for someone from the next generation. www.newsweek.com/schumer-mino...

Short term, we must not allow health care premiums to double for more than 20 million Americans.
Long term, we must provide health care to all as a human right.
