Schumer lays groundwork for future filibuster reform Alexander Bolton © Greg Nash Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.)
Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) is asking Democrats to look for GOP dance partners, both as a defense for attacks next year that his party is unwilling to work with Republicans, and as a step toward possibly limiting the filibuster.
The initial reason for seeking bipartisan opportunities is next year s midterms.
Democrats want to bolster their defenses for the coming GOP attacks that voters should deliver a GOP majority in the House or Senate as a check on President Biden, and to punish Democrats for not working on a bipartisan basis.
