Dem Govs. Pritzker, Walz Criticize Schumer for Spending Vote

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., is continuing to take heat from fellow Democrats after voting to help advance a Republican spending bill rather than risk a government shutdown.

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, both Democrats, criticized Schumer in recent days, with Pritzker declining to back him for minority leader.

“Look, he’s the elected leader,” Pritzker said after an event at the Center for American Progress. “I disagree with what he did, and vehemently so. But I also know that he has done good work as a Senate leader in other ways.”
