The Maryland Democrat has been critical of Schumer, who has led the caucus for nearly a decade.
Sen. Chris Van Hollen announced Thursday that he would challenge Chuck Schumer for the top Democratic leadership role in the Senate, arguing the party needs to take a more populist direction.
“In this election, the American people called for change. They called for a change from Donald Trump’s disastrous policies — but even bigger than that, a change from the status quo that isn’t working for working people,” Van Hollen, who represents Maryland, said in a statement obtained by The Washington Sun.
Yaaaaaaaaay. I know my email didn’t do shit but I did email him my senator about not supporting Schumer
You can email representatives other than your own. Although I recommend sending them a fax. An email is easy to filter and ignore. A fax (they are required to have a fax machine in their office) beeps loudly and shoots a paper out at them.
He is my senator
He’s a good senator to have.
