Letter to the editor: McConnell embodies political progress

Home > Opinion > Letters to the Editor > Letter to the editor: McConnell embodies political progress

By Corey Thomas–

Last week in this publication, a student authored an opinion piece that unfairly criticized the leadership of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY). Instead of weighing McConnell’s full tenure at the helm of the United States Senate, the author focused on the Republicans’ refusal to consider Judge Merrick Garland for the United States Supreme Court.

A fair look at McConnell’s record as the Majority Leader reveals that the notion of the 114th Congress not working is divorced from reality.
