    Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer said Saturday he will push to rename one of the Senate’s office buildings after the late Sen. John McCain. The building Mr. Schumer has in mind is the Russell Senate Office Building, named after Sen. Richard Russell Jr. Mr. Russell was a conservative Democrat from Georgia who was seen as an opponent of the civil rights movement, making his name on a Senate building controversial.
