WASHINGTON – Today, Senator Eric Schmitt expressed gratitude for Leader McConnell's years of service in leadership in the United States Senate. In light of McConnell's decision to step down as Senate Minority Leader, Senator Schmitt emphasized the need for Republicans to shift their focus towards the future.
Senator Schmitt stated, "Much will be said in the coming weeks and months, but Republicans must now look to the future and focus on continuing to deliver for our constituents, to taking back the majority in November, to enacting important conservative reforms, and to electing strong leadership to usher in a new era of success and prosperity for the American people."
With McConnell's departure, the Republican Party is urged to prioritize the upcoming challenges and opportunities to serve the American people effectively.
