March 3, 2021
Coronavirus
Sen. Mitch McConnell
March 3, 2021
Tweet - "What the American people need are fast-acting plans to open schools now, get laid-off Americans into jobs, and finish the fight against COVID-19. The Democrats' plan doesn't focus on that. It manages to spend ~$2T while leaving the most urgent things on the cutting room floor."

March 1, 2021
Tweet - "Only 1% of the Democrats' partisan bill goes to vaccines. Less than 9% to the entire health effort. It backs the Big Labor myth that schools can't reopen safely right now -- yet only a small fraction of its K-12 money would go out this year. Liberal ideology, not families' needs."

Feb. 24, 2021
Tweet - "Only about 1% of the Democrats' partisan plan goes to vaccines. Only about 5% of its K-12 funding would even go out this fiscal year. Democrats are not addressing the urgent needs of a re-opening America. They started with a preconceived liberal wish-list and worked backwards."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Feb. 22, 2021
Tweet - "The partisan bill Democrats are preparing is stuffed with non-COVID-related liberal goals and more band-aid policies as if the country were going to stay shut down another year. We need 2021 to be different than 2020. Congress should focus on smart policies to help that happen."

Sen. Mitch McConnell
Nov. 17, 2020
