The liberal organizing group Indivisible said Saturday it was calling for 
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to step down from his leadership 
role, the latest fallout after he backed a GOP bill to keep the government 
open.

The group’s call is the latest sign of just how much Schumer’s decision to 
vote for a Republican bill Friday has angered a Democratic grassroots 
itching for a fight with President Donald Trump.

Many Democrats saw a potential government shutdown as one of the party’s 
sole points of leverage on the government funding bill as Trump and Elon 
Musk have moved to shutter programs and cancel spending previously 
allocated by Congress. But Schumer and a handful of Democrats aligned with 
him argued doing so would only give the pair more power, and that the 
consequences of a shutdown would be worse than the bill.

Still, Schumer’s decision roiled Democrats who noted the party had been 
near-united in the House in opposing it. House Minority Leader Hakeem 
Jeffries deflected Friday when asked whether he had lost confidence in 
Schumer, while saying his conversation with the fellow New York Democrat 
would remain private.

The statement from Indivisible, which launched during Trump’s first 
administration, is a sign that the anger among Democrats extends beyond 
the halls of Congress. In a Saturday release, Indivisible said 82 percent 
of its leaders in New York and 91 percent nationwide had voted to call for 
Schumer to step aside.

“After weeks of constituents demanding that Democrats use this rare, 
precious point of leverage on the government funding bill, Schumer did the 
opposite,” the group’s co-executive director Ezra Levin said in the 
release. “He led the charge to wave the white flag of surrender. But 
Indivisible has no intention of surrendering to Trump, Musk, and 
congressional Republicans.”

A Schumer spokesperson did not immediately respond Saturday evening to an 
inquiry about Indivisible’s call. But Schumer, asked about possible calls 
for new leadership in the Senate on Thursday, acknowledged he had made a 
“tough choice,” adding: “You have to make these decisions based on what is 
best for not only your party but your country, and I firmly believe and 
always have that I’ve made the right decision.
