I am not going to vote for a partisan funding bill that makes deep cuts to essential government functions. (1/4)

Comments

Please get together with co-workers to strip Schumer of his leadership. The Treason Ten should not be allowed leadership roles.
Hate to tell you but she and @pattymurray.bsky.social made this vote possible. If they would have voted no yesterday on cloture they wouldn’t have been able to take to a vote. Tell you friends you were lied to.
Yeah, I went and checked. Our 2 voted no on cloture. It was so confusing and heated though yesterday and today that it might have gotten obscured.
I think they both voted no on the cloture though. Only the 10 in the list voted yes with Schumer on cloture.
I double checked I think I’m wrong. I’ll admit it and delete my post;)
Totally understandable! I was mad as hops today too! I'm just glad our 2 did the right thing.
Constituent here. Talk is cheap, as are throw-away symbolic votes. If you aren't calling for Schumer to step down as leader, I will assume you were complicit in his deception and betrayal.
Thank you!
VOTE TRAITOR SCHUMER OUT OF SENATE LEADERSHIP NOW.
Thank you for voting NO. I will remember this when it comes time for fundraising in the primaries elections
Thank you for voting No. We have to stand up and draw the line. Now get Schumer to understand.
How come the Senate Democrats betrayed the American people? It’s not just the ten. It’s all of you. Someone could have refused unanimous consent on the timing for the cloture vote and gained maybe 30 more hours to fight. Call for Schumer’s head if you’re sincere.
Say it louder for the people in the back!
100% she’s not telling the whole truth
Thank you!!
Thank you, Senator Cantwell for Voting NO, on the CR.
Now the Democrats in the Senate must work on Sen Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. He lost the American people's confidence!
Thank you for voting against the CR!
Thank you for Voting No.
Thank you Senator Cantwell for holding steadfast.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Replace Schumer!
I’m glad but please we are begging that someone does something about the ppl who voted yes
Thank you!
This statement would have meant a lot more YESTERDAY when we were looking for your stance. That said, thank you for your vote.
Thank you, Senator. I’m a constituent and I appreciate your stance.
Thank you!
Thank you for listening to and caring about your constituents, senator! I’m proud to live in WA during a time such a this.

I’m going to echo everyone else’s sentiment regarding Chuck Schumer. He needs to step down or be ousted! We need a more progressive voice representing our interests.
Thank you
As one of your constituents: Thank you.
I wish all of the Senate Democrats had as much courage as you and Senator Murray.
Thank you!!!
I watched the live stream from the Senate vote all day - something I have never done before. There was no good choice. Sen. Schumer enabled others to vote their conscience - good. The “permanent furlough” has been taken from Trump. Thank you and Sen. Murray. Keep fighting and find the best way how.
You really need to replace Schumer Minority Leader
Preach!
Washington State can survive and thrive without the US federal government; but only if it makes a plan to do so.
Secession planning should begin immediately. Planning must include converting federal assets to WaState assets, including military bases and Boomer subs. Fold them into WashGuard.
Respect for the job you are doing from Ireland
Too little, too late.
Get rid of @schumer.senate.gov . It's been a long time coming.
You and Sen. Murray should ask Sen. Schumer to step down, he is incapable of leadership apparently.
Thank you for voting no. But I agree with the others who wish you had taken a stance and let your constituents know these thoughts sooner. I hope you will be more communicative with us moving forward.
THANK YOU SENATOR.

I wish better could be said of your “colleagues”
While appreciate you doing the right thing, you will be receiving zero money or support from me until Chuck Schumer is removed as minority leader. At best he is a coward that hides behind decorum and misguided ideas of bipartisanship that doesn’t exist. And at worst he is a corporate owned toady.
Thank you, Senator, for listening to the voices of your constituents!
I’m a constituent. Please call for Senator Schumer to step down.
Along with a big ole NO on cloture! Thanks, Maria
Thank you for voting no! Now please call for Sen Schumer to resign and for new leadership in the party.
Not a penny for a single Senate Democratic any GD thing til Schumer is replaced
Join in removing Schumer as leader. What he did is unconscionable.
Thank you for voting no! Now get Chuck Schumer out of a leadership role!
Remove Shumer
Thank you.
Thank you, Senator.
Thank you, Senator, for your vote. This is a beginning. People are hungry for real leadership from their elected representatives to help them fight for their constitutional rights and for the future of our democracy. The opportunity to be a hero is yours for the taking, but it requires taking risks.
This is what we want. Are you listening?

Block their every move any way you can.

And Schumer has to go.
Thank you for voting No.
Thank you Senator!
Thank you, Senator! As an #EasternWA Democrat, I appreciate that you have stood up to preserve our democracy. One guy can’t run everything, we elected you to represent our state in this multifaceted country.
You are a liar. You voted YES on cloture that made it possible for you to then vote no. Washingtonians wake up she and @pattymurray.bsky.social made this vote possible. Without their yes vote on cloture the bill would not have come up for a vote.
I don’t get the people calling for extreme vitriol in your comments, but I understand their frustration.

What we need from Dems is a concrete plan on how they’re going to counter what this admin is/has done. Rhetoric sounds neat, but accomplishes nothing. What is your plan!!!!???
Thank you for voting no. Please continue to push for Schumer out of his lead, and push on the fellow dems who DID vote.
Thank you. When will you be calling for @schumer.senate.gov to step down?
💙💕💙💕💙💕💙💕
Thank you, Senator. 🙏
One more constituent thanking you for your vote.

I hope you see the fight we are in, the danger of "compromising" w/ fascists and understand the Dem role is resistance.

Step one is finding new Senate leadership capable of uniting the party and leading the fight.

@schumer.senate.gov must go.
Thank you, Senator Cantwell, for voting NO on the CR. We still lost, but your stand gives me hope. The fight goes on.
Thank you!
This bill endangers the health of Americans by cutting $280 million from the National Institutes of Health; jeopardizes the state of Washington’s maritime economy by slashing the Army Corps of Engineers by 44 percent ... (2/4)
Thank you for your no vote, Senator.

I’m proud to be a Washingtonian today.
We are all so concerned about #47 stealing america blind
... and impacts our farmers by cutting $57 million from USDA’s important agriculture research facilities. A bipartisan congressional effort to finish all appropriations bills would have delivered better results for taxpayers. (3/4)

Down with Chuck Schumer—he must resign! He has utterly failed as “leader” of the Dems when he caved on Friday over the CR. He is 100% OUT OF TOUCH. He must must must go. He is allowing the Fascist Republicans to gut our safety net. Shame on Schumer!!!
What will you do to stand up to "Chuck"?
Congress has the authority and responsibility to direct federal spending based on the needs of their constituents. Turning that work over to the White House puts important programs like NOAA experts working on salmon recovery or creating weather forecasts at risk. (4/4)
reply
I more motivated than ever to vote with my money. Do right by the people of WA or my money will be against you
Thank you. Time to take the next step. I urge you—and all your colleagues who voted No—to choose a new Minority Leader. Schumer does not have what it takes for to stand up to Trump and Musk
Thank you @cantwell.senate.gov keep pushing 🤍
Are you working on ousting Schumer from leadership?
Please seriously consider ousting Chuck Schumer as Minority Leader ASAP. He's well and truly lost the confidence of most if not all of us Democratic voters. He's the absolute wrong person for these times.
Thank you, Senator. Proud to have you represent me in the "other Washington"
Yes, Congress does, but the Dems caved over the CR. Down with Schumer—he must resign! He has utterly failed as “leader” of the Dems when he caved on Friday over the CR. He is 100% OUT OF TOUCH. He must must must go. He is allowing the Fascist Republicans to gut our safety net. Shame on Schumer!!!
Better late than never I guess. Now what are you gonna do about Schumer and the other turncoats?

Also, you better be done helping these people.
Thank you! It's good to see both our senators fighting!
Great, now are you going to publicly demand @schumer.senate.gov resign his failed leadership role or is this just empty "re-elect me" political posturing?
Thank you for voting no on cloture, the important vote. Now we need to see a change in minority senate “leadership.” We first need to see that those we vote for or donate to can fight for us when it counts. Starting with putting our own house in order should be the easiest step.
You got my vote last time and will continue to get my votes and financial support if you continue to fight this scourge
On America

Great and thanks for holding the line. Now get to work on replacing Schumer. He fucked you over and destroyed your relationship with the House.
Thank you for voting NO on cloture. Schumer has betrayed us.
Thank you, Senator.

Please also rally the other NO vote Democratic party senators to oust Chuck Schumer. His being at the helm of the Senate Minority cannot continue.
Thank you for siding with the people and Denocracy.

I don't understand the Dems that didn't.

Are they trying to act like the shit going down in the WH is somehow normal.

Fire Schumer NOW please!
Olympia, a city of <60,000 had this many vets protesting yesterday!
Stand by for more protests and action if necessary!
Thank you from Bellingham, Senator! Now please take steps to remove Schumer from leadership and replace him with someone who has a backbone.
Thank you!
I’m a constituent too and I’m glad you voted no. Dems need to come together. The 10 yes votes was a huge disappointment. I fear Dems have lost a number of people and funds based on comments I’ve read here on Bluesky. It’s so important to listen to constituents. You need their vote!
Your vote was a no but many think the yes votes were made by those who could afford to do so. That’s playing politics and we want you to be authentic with us. Also I’d like it if you would declare your intentions before each vote.
I am a constituent and also am glad and grateful you voted no. But of course I am not naive that Senators arrange for who can afford a vote and each take their turn. So, the overall result was no and not what the people wanted. Can we trust that you fought internally to not support the CR? Concerns.
Thank you for not capitulating to the dismantling of our social safety nets. I hope you will share with your colleagues who did vote with republicans, that those of us who voted for democrats feel betrayed.

Thank you for eventually announcing this somewhere most of your constituents actually read.
Thank you for voting no on cloture. Now please call for Schumer's removal. We need a new leader in the Senate who knows how to fight and lead an opposition party.
Vote Schumer out of leadership. Demand his resignation. The Dems just gave up the only leverage they had. All this will do is embolden republicans to shove worse crap down your throat next time. And Schumer has just shown he'll say thank you and ask for more.
Thank you, Sen. Cantwell.
Thank you! Sen Cantwell for always putting WA residents & our beautiful environment 1st which is why you
will always have my support & donations. I give all Dems grace with their votes bc the republicans set them up, cut them out & the house reps left to tie their hands. It was a no win situation
Thank you.
Dump Schumer.
Why did you not withold unanimous consent?
Thank you!
You did the right thing.

Nonetheless, no incumbent democrat, in any office, gets my vote while Schumer is in charge.

If this is what the party leadership does then what does voting for any of you accomplish? Washington State might as well not have had any senators at all.
It is time to chuck Chuck.

@schumer.senate.gov
Thanks for taking a stand and sharing it, and why you made your choice. #issaquah
Thank you but you need to go. You votes to advance nominees.
Thank you for voting no Senator
Thank you for voting no on cloture. We need your leadership to continue and your influence to change party leadership to those who will stand up for the people instead of collaborating.
Thank you
Thank you Sen. Cantwell!
