Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Chuck Schumer (D-NY) are planning to land a massive blow against the Republican effort to take away health care from tens of millions of Americans with a day of Senate led nationwide protests on February 25.
In the letter, Sanders and Schumer wrote to their Senate colleagues:
Sanders and Schumer wrote, “We are encouraging Democratic senators to lead rallies in their states. This is not a Democratic issue, a Republican issue or an Independent issue. The overwhelming majority of Americans, regardless of political persuasion, understand that we have to go forward on health care, not backwards.”
The organization of rallies is something that did not occur under the leadership in the previous Congress. As Democratic Leader, Sen. Schumer (D-NY) has adopted a more grassroots approach to building popular support.
There is no better person to have handling Democratic outreach than Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). Sanders demonstrated during his 2016 presidential campaign that he understands better than anyone outside of former President Obama how to build a powerful people based political operation.
Senate Republicans are getting zero leadership from the Trump administration and are in chaos over Obamacare repeal. The Republicans are terrified of the political consequences of taking health care away from 20-30 million people. They have no replacement plan and no clue what they are doing.
A series of national rallies led by Democratic Senators in their home states could provide a knockout blow to the Republican repeal efforts. Already skittish Senate Republicans are going to panic even more if they see hundreds of thousands or millions of Americans fighting to keep their health care.
On February 25, the Senate will be leading the charge as the rebellion against the GOP agenda is extending to the Senate thanks to the tactics of Bernie Sanders and Chuck Schumer.
