The Senate minority leader appeared exclusively on 'America's Newsroom' to discuss the nearly $2 trillion spending bill amid rampant inflation, arguing Congress should 'kill the bill.' #FoxNews
MITCH MCCONNELL: Well, I think there's good news. Multiple courts have pushed the pause button on these government vaccine mandates. There's a decent chance the courts will strike them down. Secondly, next week we're going to have a vote on the vaccine mandate prohibiting that regulation from going into effect. I think it has a decent chance of passing the Senate. I don't think shutting down the government over this issue is going to get an outcome. It would only create chaos and uncertainty, so I don't think that's the best vehicle to get this job done. I think the courts are likely to get it done or we'll pass [it] early next week. Free standing a measure to overturn the government mandate... Yeah, we're not going to shut the government down. That makes no sense for anyone. Almost no one on either side thinks that's a good idea.
