Description:
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) addresses the body about about the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy and about President Trump's potential nominees to replace him. Schumer speculates on the impact a conservative Trump appointee may have on rolling back existing rulings on women's health, the Affordable Care Act, and marriage equality. Schumer reminds the audience about McConnell's purposeful actions to delay hearings on President Obama's nominee until after the 2016 election and says McConnell should similarly wait until the the new legislature is seated after the 2018 mid-term election.
