SCENE: Ask a Pol’s Matt Laslo catches Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer — along with his entourage of staffers and security — walking through the Capitol when he asks for an update on the SAFER Banking Act, which has passed the House, even as Schumer’s never let it hit his Senate floor for debate, let alone a vote...

Matt Laslo: “Mr. Leader, when are we gonna see SAFER Banking Act?”

Chuck Schumer: scowls

ML: “Preciate ya.”

Laslo smirks.
