Tensions between Washington Democrats and Kyrsten Sinema came to a boil on Wednesday with the Arizona senator lashing out at Majority Leader Chuck Schumer over the slow pace of voting in the chamber.
United States Senator from West Virginia
While Schumer's response to Sinema was not captured on tape or relayed to reporters by Senate colleagues, Sinema's outburst caught the attention of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.Ocasio-Cortez is one of many progressives incensed at Sinema over her opposition to the Build Back Better bill and changes to the filibuster to pass voting rights legislation.
“The American people deserve to see their senators go on record and whether they will support these bills or oppose them,” Schumer said ahead of the failed vote. “Indeed, that may be the only way to make progress on this issue for now: for the public to see where each of us in this chamber stands.”
