After the blowback Democrats received for the Schumer Shutdown, you’d think they’d keep their distance from the scheme’s architect, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. But not Jacky Rosen!
Rosen will head to Houston tomorrow morning for a big dollar fundraiser with Schumer and other Democrat candidates for Senate. While Rosen clearly needs all the help she can get in her uphill 2018 Senate race, tying herself to Schumer so soon after the Schumer Shutdown will not go over well with folks in Nevada.
“Jacky Rosen raising campaign cash with Chuck Schumer will only serve to remind Nevadans that Rosen voted to shut down the federal government and deny health insurance to 8.9 million children as part of Schumer and Nancy Pelosi’s partisan games,” said NRSC Spokesman Michael McAdams. “Rosen’s blind loyalty to Washington Democrats like Schumer and Pelosi shows that she will always put partisanship ahead of doing what’s best for Nevada.”
