Pelosi slams ‘false choice’ on shutdown, indirectly criticizing Schumer

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi offered some sidelong criticism of her colleagues in the other chamber Friday after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said he would vote to allow passage of a GOP spending patch.

“America has experienced a Trump shutdown before — but this damaging legislation only makes matters worse. Democrats must not buy into this false choice. We must fight back for a better way. Listen to the women, For The People,” she said in a statement, endorsing an alternative bill from top Democratic appropriators Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.) and Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.).

Pelosi also said she backed House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ decision to oppose the bill. All House Democrats but one voted against it.
