69. Schumer was not of the 8 cavers in the Senate

Tue Nov 25, 2025, 10:45 PM

Tuesday

Senator Richard Durbin (Illinois, retiring)

Senator Angus King (I - Maine, term ends in 2030)

Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (Nevada, term ends in 2028)

Senator Jacky Rosen (Nevada, term ends in 2030)

Senator Maggie Hassan (New Hampshire, term ends in 2028)

Senator Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire, retiring)

Senator John Fetterman (Pennsylvania, term ends in 2028)

Senator Tim Kaine (Virginia term ends in 2030)

Plus 6 cavers in the House, all are centrist conservative Dems :

Jared Golden (Maine)
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.)
Adam Gray (Calif.)
Don Davis (N.C.)
Henry Cuellar (Texas)
Tom Suozzi (N.Y.)

If you swap out Gray and replace him with Josh Gottheimer (N.J.) you have my 6 worst Dems in the House, and not just earned from this one vote at all.
