Washington – 13 November 2024
1. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Chuck Schumer, Senate Majority Leader:
“I want to thank Senator Murray and Reid for joining me. Look, I want to start by congratulating Senator Thune on being chosen by his colleagues as the next Republican leader. I look forward to working with him. Now Senator Thune and I have done lots of things together in a bipartisan way here in the Senate. I’m very hopeful that will continue. As you know, I strongly believe that bipartisanship is the best and often the only way to get things done around here in the Senate.”

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Chuck Schumer, Senate Majority Leader:
“This is going to be a period of learning for our caucus. As I said we did many things right. We did things wrong. And there are things we must do and we’re going to look at all of it. As I told my caucus at lunch, we should regard this election not, we should really regard this election really as a challenge. The American people have presented us with a challenge. We must learn from it. We must answer that call. And we will work doggedly in the weeks and months ahead to do just that.”
++BLACK FRAMES++
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Patty Murray, (D) Washington:
“Now, I want to make it clear, it doesn’t matter who the president is, my position has not changed. As I have said many times over, there is no reason for further delay or to impair government agencies by forcing them to operate on autopilot for months to come.”

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Chuck Schumer, Senate Majority Leader:
“Look, we’re going to try to do as much as we can when it comes to judges and nominees, particularly those nominees who face the balance within the agency is affected. Yes.”

STORYLINE:
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who saw his party’s control of the chamber vanquished by Republicans, said the election wasn’t what many Democrats had hoped for, but he would speak with Trump soon.
"We should regard this election not merely as a defeat, but more importantly as a challenge,” he said.
Even as final election results are still being tallied, the House and Senate leadership is pushing ahead toward a second-term Trump White House and what he’s called a mandate for governing, with mass deportations, industry deregulation and wholesale reductions in the federal government.
