Rep. Glenn Ivey (D-MD) criticized Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) during a town hall on Tuesday and called for new leadership within the Democratic Party.
I thought it was critical to make sure that we block that bill,” Ivey said of the GOP’s continuing resolution to fund the government for the remaining fiscal year, largely at the same level as under President Joe Biden.
“I was deeply disappointed that Senator Schumer voted with the Republicans. You know you’re on bad ground when you get a personal tweet from Donald Trump thanking you for your vote,” Ivey continued, noting that Trump acknowledged Schumer’s decision to back the spending bill.
