Activists celebrate Democrats’ push to filibuster Gorsuch

The Washington Post

On Sunday night, after umpteen interviews about rounding up 41 votes to filibuster Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch, Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) called into the weekly “Ready to Resist” call organized by MoveOn and other progressive groups. He waited his turn. MoveOn’s Anna Galland reported that Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) just joined the filibuster. Heather McGhee, the president of Demos, praised Schumer for listening to activists.

“I want to thank Chuck Schumer for showing the backbone to do what Democrats demand he do at this moment,” McGhee said.
