Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer defended Democrats’ approach to the government shutdown after the Senate on Thursday failed to advance competing Democratic and Republican measures to address health care costs. Schumer told CBS News’ Caitlin Huey-Burns: “When the Republicans didn’t, wouldn't talk to us, it was their shutdown, and the people see it. But we are going to continue. One thing that happened, the health care issue became front and center.” | CBS News
