US Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer announced he will vote against the cloture vote on the Laken Riley Act due to the unwillingness of Senate Republicans to have a serious debate to improve the legislation. Schumer criticized the Republicans for blocking all amendments to the bill, which is intended to reduce carbon emissions and create jobs, and accused them of using the measure to make a political point rather than addressing climate change. He urged Republicans to work with Democrats to improve the bill and to address climate change, infrastructure, and clean energy jobs.
