Congressman Morgan McGarvey’s Statement on Senator Mitch McConnell Stepping Down from Senate Leadership

WASHINGTON, D.C. (February 28, 2024) – Congressman McGarvey released the following statement after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell announced he would step down from his leadership position in November: 

“Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is the longest-serving leader, and one of the most consequential legislators, in Senate history. While we disagree on almost everything, I appreciate his bipartisan leadership in passing the bipartisan infrastructure law, avoiding government shutdowns, and securing funding for our international allies. We don’t see eye to eye on most issues, but we both believe in public service. Leader McConnell is only stepping down from his leadership role, and I look forward to working with him to support Kentuckians whenever possible.”
