Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said it is “surreal” and “beyond distasteful” for Senate Democrats to cite the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol as an excuse to weaken the filibuster to pass broad elections reforms, Politico reports.
Said McConnell: “It is surreal to hear sitting senators invoke January the sixth to justify breaking the rules to grab outcomes they have not earned. It is surreal to hear sitting senators invoke January the sixth to argue that institutions can be trampled because they’d like a different result.”
