McConnell Statement On The Baucus Draft

U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell made the following statement Wednesday regarding the Baucus draft:

“This partisan proposal cuts Medicare by nearly a half-trillion dollars, and puts massive new tax burdens on families and small businesses, to create yet another thousand-page, trillion-dollar government program. Only in Washington would anyone think that makes sense, especially in this economy.”
