Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday night teased what the top priorities will be for Democrats if they win back the majority in November.
Schumer, speaking to a national audience as part of the virtual Democratic National Convention, pledged that if Democrats win back the Senate they will be "united," despite a spectrum of views within the caucus.
"If we’re going to win this battle for the soul of our nation, Joe can’t do it alone. Democrats must take back the Senate. We will stay united, from Sanders and Warren, to Manchin and Warner—and with our unity, we will bring bold and dramatic change to our country," Schumer said.
Schumer offered a laundry list of areas Democrats would act on if they win back the Senate, including healthcare, climate change, fighting systemic racism and "restoring" the Supreme Court.
