Charles Ellis Schumer born November 23 1950 is an American politician serving as Senate Majority Leader since 2021 and as a United States senator from New York since 1999.

Elected to a fifth Senate term in 2022 Schumer surpassed Moynihan and Jacob K. Javits as the longest-serving U.S. senator from New York. Daniel L. Squadron born November 9 1979 is an American politician and former member of the New York State Senate for the 26th district. A Democrat Squadron was elected a New York State Senator in 2008 and was a candidate in the 2013 race for New York Public Advocate. In August 2017 he resigned from the State Senate to work with entrepreneur Adam Pritzker and Jeffrey Sachs of Columbia University to launch Future Now a national initiative to promote "policies focused on creating a better healthier fairer future." New York’s popular senior senator who won reelection by the largest margin in the state’s history offers a bold plan for change in the Democratic party. As the results of the last presidential election played out it became clear that while Democrats call themselves the party of the middle the middle class does not consider the Democrats their party. Now Chuck Schumer who has gained national prominence as the head of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and as a member of the Finance Committee offers his plan for capturing the middle-class vote and moving his party back into the majority. Democrats can accomplish this the senator explains without abandoning their traditional principles. Schumer envisions a hypothetical average middle-class American family—he thinks of them as "The Baileys"—who spend "as much time talking about the cost of cornflakes as the cost of the national debt." He then details specific proposals he believes would keep America safe secure and on top; and support the aspirations of a prosperous and growing middle class while speaking to anxieties created in a world changed by technology and globalization. For example he proposes to: · increase the number of college graduates by 50%. · reduce property taxes by 50%. New York's popular senior senator who won reelection by the largest margin in the states history offers a bold plan for change in the Democratic party. He also details specific proposals he believes would keep America safe secure and on top.
