Demand Senate Democrats Reconsider Their Support for Chuck Schumer
The Issue
Call on Senators Publicly Supporting Chuck Schumer to Reconsider Their Endorsements
Following the November 2026 midterm elections, Senate Democrats face a consequential decision about the future direction of their party and its leadership.
Six Democratic senators have publicly expressed support for Chuck Schumer continuing as Senate Democratic leader:
- Sen. Tim Kaine (Virginia) - (202) 224-4024
- Sen. John Fetterman (Pennsylvania) - (202) 224-4254
- Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (Maryland) - (202) 224-4524
- Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (Rhode Island) - (202) 224-2921
- Sen. Ruben Gallego (Arizona) - (202) 224-4521
- Sen. Mark Kelly (Arizona) - (202) 224-2235
While we recognize the Democratic Party’s electoral successes, winning elections should not eliminate the need for accountability, leadership evaluation, or consideration of alternative candidates.
We, the undersigned, respectfully call on these six senators, and any additional senators who publicly endorse Schumer, to:
- Reconsider and publicly withdraw their endorsements of Chuck Schumer for Senate Democratic leader.
- Support the nomination and serious consideration of alternative leadership candidates, giving qualified members a meaningful opportunity to present their vision.
- Participate in an open, competitive, and transparent leadership selection process, rather than treating the outcome as predetermined.
- Explain their leadership decisions publicly and engage with constituents about the Democratic Party’s priorities and future direction.
- Commit to meaningful accountability, ensuring Senate leadership remains responsive to the voters and communities the party represents.
This petition is not about personal attacks or dismissing past accomplishments. It is about ensuring that Democratic senators seriously evaluate their leadership options rather than automatically continuing with the status quo.
The American people deserve leadership that is accountable, responsive, transparent, and willing to consider new ideas.
We call on all six senators to publicly respond to these requests before the next Senate Democratic leadership election.
Sign this petition to demand a meaningful discussion about the future of Senate Democratic leadership.
