GOP Senators Object to Naming Building After McCain

“A push to rename a Senate office building after the late Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) is facing political headwinds on Capitol Hill, from Republican lawmakers,” The Hill reports.

Among those opposed: Sen. Richard Shelby (R-AL), Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) and Sen. David Perdue (R-GA).

“The GOP pushback is the latest sign that what had emerged as a bipartisan idea in the immediate wake of McCain’s death is already losing momentum in the Senate, where McCain served for more than three decades.”
