Progressive group urges Senate Democrats to replace Schumer as leader

Progressive group Indivisible called on Senate Democrats Wednesday to replace Chuck Schumer as their leader following the party's midterm election victories, citing his low approval ratings and a demand for new leadership. The group pointed to an NBC News poll showing only 13 percent of voters viewed Schumer positively, while newly elected Democratic senators from Michigan, Kansas, Illinois, and Maine have publicly declined to support him for majority leader. Schumer celebrated the election results as a "generational remake of the Senate map," but faces potential challenges from within his caucus as some incoming members, including Michigan's Abdul El-Sayed, have endorsed alternatives like Sen. Chris Van Hollen.
