Schumer on D.C. and Puerto Rico: ‘Would Love to Make Them States’
(Worthy News) – Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Democrats are “using all the tactics we can” to slow down the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.
And if the 2020 election is a clean sweep for Democrats, Schumer indicated they will do what they can to render the Republican minority powerless for a long time.
MSNBC’s Joy Reid asked Schumer on Wednesday if Democrats would add D.C. and Puerto Rico as states and end the Senate filibuster.
“I would — believe me, on D.C. and Puerto Rico — particularly if Puerto Rico votes for it, D.C. already has voted for it and wants it — would love to make them states,” Schumer said. [ Source: CNS News (Read More…) ]
