Feb. 28, 2024, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President today issued the following statement on Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) stepping down from his Senate Republican leadership position in November:
“Senator McConnell’s decision to step down from his Senate Republican leadership post in November will hopefully embolden him and his staff to use these last few months to fight for a restoration of fiscal sanity, freedom and border security. Senator McConnell has an opportunity to at least partially restore his legacy by using his position to stop the flow of illegal aliens root and branch. If he instead chooses appeasement on the border, the budget and on Biden’s executive overreaches, it will cement his position as an establishment stumbling block against true reform. In the least, McConnell’s exit now clears the way for Senate Republicans to choose leadership who are going to work diligently to accomplish the Trump agenda in 2025.”
