U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell released the following statement Monday regarding the President's speech:

"Veto threats, a massive tax hike, phantom savings, and punting on entitlement reform is not a recipe for economic or job growth--or even meaningful deficit reduction. The good news is that the Joint Committee is taking this issue far more seriously than the White House."
