NRSC Chairman Tim Scott issued the following statement on Senator Mitch McConnell’s retirement:
“Senator Mitch McConnell dedicated his life to public service and the state he loves. Our country is grateful for his leadership and legacy of confirming conservative judges and justices, and safeguarding the Republican Senate Majority. Kentucky is a red state, so the NRSC is confident that our eventual nominee will be a principled, America First conservative who will join our Majority’s fight for our nation’s Golden Era.”
