McConnell Comments on Nomination of Benjamin Beaton of Kentucky to Serve on U.S. District Court
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 10, 2020
Tweet - "I hoped this week we'd be finalizing major legislation. After all, American families are struggling and need help. But Speaker Pelosi and Leader Schumer decided not to deliver. I am glad the president stepped in to soften the blow of their hostage tactics."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 10, 2020
Tweet - "Because of Democrats' obstruction, the extra federal unemployment aid expired. The PPP is closed with no second round in sight. No new money for testing or schools. No second round of checks to families. Democrats held all this hostage for non-COVID-related liberal priorities."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 8, 2020
Tweet - "Struggling Americans need action now. I am glad that President Trump is proving that while Democrats use laid-off workers as political pawns, Republicans will actually look out for them. My full statement:"
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 7, 2020
Letter to the Hon. Steven Mnuchin, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Treasury and the Hon. Charles P. Rettig, Internal Revenue Service Commissioner - Lucas Joins Colleagues Urging Action on Delayed Stimulus Payments
Rep. Jamie Comer, ...
Aug. 6, 2020
Tweet - "Democrats' obstruction last week forced the additional federal unemployment benefit to expire. Their obstruction this week will force another deadline: the PPP shuts its doors Saturday. Republicans had plans to keep both from expiring. Democrats have refused them all."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 6, 2020
Tweet - "Tune in now to @CNBC . I am joining @SquawkStreet to discuss Senate Republicans' plan to help struggling Americans who are facing the mounting consequences of Democrats' inaction. Our nation needs a bipartisan outcome, and they need it now."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 6, 2020
Tweet - "ICYMI, I joined @FoxNews to discuss Democrats' obstruction of the COVID-19 relief negotiations, how Republicans tried to keep extra unemployment benefits from expiring, and the need to keep small-business aid flowing."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 5, 2020
Congressman Andy Barr Introduces Legislation Requiring Publicly Traded Companies to Disclose Ties to Chinese Communist Party
Rep. Andy Barr
Aug. 5, 2020
Majority Leader McConnell Introduces Kentuckian Jennifer Yue Barber at UN Nomination Hearing
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 5, 2020
Tweet - "Democratic leaders say they'll keep blocking federal unemployment aid unless we pay people more to stay home than to work. That isn't just bad economics, it's unfair. We should not be taxing essential workers to pay their neighbors a higher salary to stay home."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 4, 2020
Tweet - "We need to urgently help working families and those who've lost their jobs. But the Speaker and the Democratic Leader are blocking the entire rescue package over a special, unrelated tax cut for rich people in high-tax blue states."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 3, 2020
Tweet - "The Senate mourns the young American servicemembers who were tragically lost while training last week. Our sympathies are with their families and our gratitude is with all the personnel who led the tireless search."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Aug. 2, 2020
McConnell on "Full Court Press' with Greta Van Susteren
Sen. Mitch McConnell
July 31, 2020
Tweet - "Republicans tried several ways to extend unemployment benefits. Democrats blocked them all. They're refusing any more COVID relief for anyone unless they get a massive tax cut for rich people in blue states. The country can't afford this cynicism. Americans need help now."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
July 30, 2020
Veterans Benefits Fairness and Transparency Act led by Congressman Andy Barr passes House Veterans' Affairs Committee
Rep. Andy Barr
July 30, 2020
Tweet - "Senate Republicans tried several ways to extend the expiring unemployment assistance. Democrats blocked them all and refused another dime for COVID-19 relief unless they get to pass a bill that includes an unrelated tax cut for rich people in blue states."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
July 30, 2020
Tweet - "There's a fact of life here in the United States Senate: It takes 60 votes to legislate. So the American people cannot get any of the additional relief that Republicans want to give them unless Democrats will come to the table."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
July 29, 2020
Tweet - "The historic CARES Act has helped families endure this crisis. But our nation is not done with this fight. More Americans are dying. Millions are unemployed. Added federal unemployment benefits are close to expiring. Democrats need to get serious and come to the table."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
July 28, 2020
McConnell on CNBC's "Closing Bell"
Sen. Mitch McConnell
July 27, 2020
Tweet - "We have produced a tailored and targeted bill that will address each of the three distinct crises facing our country: Getting kids back in school, getting workers back to work, and winning the healthcare fight against the virus. Kids, jobs, and healthcare."
