Mitch McConnell
Forcing free market plans to compete with these government-run programs would create an unlevel playing field and inevitably doom true competition.
Mitch McConnell
As the leader of the Republicans what I'm telling that we elected the president to be president. It's time for him to step up to the plate and lead us in the direction of reducing our excessive spending.
Mitch McConnell
It seems with every new day, we have a new veto threat from the president.
Mitch McConnell
