Chuck Schumer (Democratic Party) is a member of the U.S. Senate from New York. He assumed office on January 3, 1999. His current term ends on January 3, 2029.
Schumer (Democratic Party, Working Families Party) ran for re-election to the U.S. Senate to represent New York. He won in the general election on November 8, 2022.
Senate Democrats unanimously elected Schumer as Senate minority leader in November 2016.[1] On January 20, 2021, he became Senate majority leader after Vice President Kamala Harris (D) was sworn into office, assuming her role as president—and tie-breaker—of the 50-50 Senate.[2] Schumer was unanimously re-elected as majority leader for the 118th Congress in December 2022.[3]
Schumer was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1950. He graduated from Harvard University with a degree in social studies in 1971 and received a J.D. from Harvard Law School in 1974.[4] As an undergraduate, he was president of Harvard Young Democrats.[5] Schumer passed the New York Bar in 1975 but did not practice law.[6]
Schumer's first political office was in the New York State Assembly, where he served from 1975 to 1980.[4] In 1980, at age 29, he won election to the U.S. House of Representatives. He was re-elected eight times, representing parts of Brooklyn and Queens from 1981 to 1999.[4][7] In 1998, Schumer won election to the U.S. Senate, defeating three-term incumbent Sen. Alfonse D'Amato (R) 55% to 44%.[8][9] Before Schumer's election, 1947 was the last year Democrats held both of New York's U.S. Senate seats.[10] As of 2024, Schumer's Senate re-election margins ranged from 14 percentage points in 2022 to 47 percentage points in 2004.
Schumer chaired the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee from 2005 to 2008 and the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee from 2011 to 2017.[4] Schumer has listed the Inflation Reduction Act (2022), the CHIPS and Science Act (2022), the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (2021), and the American Rescue Plan (2021) as accomplishments of his Senate tenure.[11]
In 2020, Politico's John Bresnahan and Marianne Levine wrote, "[T]he Schumer of today is a far cry from the Reagan-era liberal who won election to the House in 1980 and then embraced the mantle of a 'law-and-order Democrat' when he ran for the Senate in 1998. The self-described 'angry centrist' is no more."[12] Schumer told Politico, "A good elected official looks at the needs of the people he or she represents and does everything he or she can to help solve those needs, and the world changes. And the problems that existed, say in the ‘90s, are different than the problems that exist today."[12] Schumer said his legislative priorities included New York's economy, expanding healthcare, gun safety, college affordability, immigration reforms, climate change, and racial justice.[12][13]

Personal Gain Index

- See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)
The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: Change in net worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Schumer's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $369,017 and $1,035,000. That averages to $702,008.50, which is lower than the average net worth of Democratic senators in 2012 of $13,566,333.90. Schumer ranked as the 73rd most wealthy senator in 2012.[166] Between 2004 and 2012, Schumer's calculated net worth[167] increased by an average of 3 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[168]
Chuck Schumer Yearly Net Worth | |
---|---|
Year | Average Net Worth |
2004 | $577,341 |
2012 | $702,008 |
Growth from 2004 to 2012: | 22% |
Average annual growth: | 3%[169] |
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[170] |
The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.
PGI: Donation Concentration Metric
Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). In the 113th Congress, Schumer was the chair of the United States Senate Committee on Rules and Administration. Schumer received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Securities & Investment industry.
From 1989-2014, 34.87 percent of Schumer's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[171]
