    Is there a senator who has stated they want to take the leadership away from Schumer? And likewise a congress person to take over from Jeffries in the house?

      To my knowledge, not yet. But I never expected a word to be said on this notion until post-election celebrations settle. The time before midterms was to fall in line, but now over the course of these next months I expect there to be a focus inward as to the future direction of the party.
