Of course they will force votes on bills.

They will make Repubs vote against popular stuff like increasing the minimum wage.

But they won't get through the Senate so Trump won't have to veto them.

And all those bills that get fillibustered don't really register with the vast majority of the public. They don't move the needle.

New leaders won't be able to do anything different. It's a fight with no real benefit, other than making the Democrats look divided.

FWIW, I think Schumer handled the government shutdown fight with Trump very well.
