You're too smart to start playing this game, right?
Google is your friend, use it.
I did. I couldn't find anything connected to Schumer, or anyone else in the Senate. I found lots of attack press from Republican leadership talking about some $1.5 trillion proposal, but I couldn't find the proposal itself - or even who it came from. They also all seemed to be from before the shutdown actually happened.
It wouldn't shock me if there was a wish list bill from early days that some Democrats had thrown out there as an example of what they think a good budget would look like - but I can't find any evidence that there was any serious proposal that Democratic leadership was putting on the table that were their actual offer for ending the shutdown.
Usually my google-fu is pretty good, but it has eluded me.
Since you've mentioned it numerous times, and even started a new thread about it, I assumed you would have it handy. Could you just provide a quick link to the proposal that you think Schumer was initially insisting on, but from which he has now caved?
