Democrats' new Senate campaign committee chair reveals keys to winning back majority
Fox News
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, in a Fox News interview as she takes over steering the Senate Democrats campaign committee for the 2026 midterm elections, details her plans to win back majority.
Gillibrand, the longtime senator from New York who was re-elected in November, was named on Monday by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a fellow New Yorker, to steer the Senate Democrats' campaign committee in the 2026 cycle.
"Electing more Democrats to the Senate in 2026 is the most important thing we can do to limit the damage of Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans and do more for working families," Schumer argued in a statement. "I have worked side by side with Kirsten Gillibrand for nearly two decades and I know she will be an outstanding DSCC Chair. With her hard work, tenacity, and discipline, Sen. Gillibrand is the right person to lead our campaign to victory in 2026."
