Chuck Schumer under fire from left-wing activists

Left-wing activists have found a collateral target in their efforts to resist President Trump - powerful Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer. Enraged that the Senate Minority Leader has voted in favor of several cabinet nominees, a coalition of political, environmental and anti-poverty organizations led by the Working Families Party plan to protest near Schumer's Park Slope home and in front of his Peekskill office this week.
