Outlets across the spectrum highlight Senator Schumer’s dismissal of the Republican DHS funding effort as a "partisan sideshow." While PBS News focuses on Schumer’s concerns regarding agency conduct and lack of oversight, AP News emphasizes his sharper political rhetoric, reporting his claim that the GOP is "bending the knee" to Donald Trump. Daily Montanan further notes Schumer’s intent to counter the move with a "vote-a-rama" designed to force Republicans to vote on cost-of-living issues.
