WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - The freeze on Capitol Hill seems to be thawing as much of the rest of the country deals with an arctic blast.

Monday night, senators passed a funding measure to re-open the government.

Now, it appears, the results of that bipartisan vote is prompting Democrats to turn on each other.

Seven Democrats and an independent broke rank Monday night to re-open the government, but now face backlash from their own party.

The group faces scrutiny for not getting any deliverables on healthcare for which the party had been holding out.

They got the promise for a healthcare vote in the future, which is likely to fail in the Republican-led chambers.

Now, a chorus is growing for Senate Minotiry Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), believed to be the architect behind the deal, to step down.

Senator Bernie Sanders, the independent from Vermont, is unhappy with Senator Schumer’s leadership.

“Look, Schumer and I have very fundamental disagreements about where the Democratic Party should be, and I am strongly supporting candidates for the Senate who are not part of the Democratic establishment or believe in Medicare for all, who are prepared to take on the big money interests and fight for working people.

The bill the Senate passed now heads to the House, where it faces challenges created by the shutdown.
