Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) has been hit with several ethics complaints over his remarks critical of two conservative Supreme Court justices that some interpreted as a threat.

Complaints were filed with the Senate Ethics Committee and the New York bar’s Grievance Committee following Schumer’s comments at an abortion rally outside the court building last week.
