McConnell Heaps Praise on Kyrsten Sinema

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) praised Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ), saying she’s the “most effective first-term senator” he’s seen during his 37 years in the upper chamber, Insider reports.

Said McConnell: “I’ve only known Kyrsten for four years, but she is, in my view — and I’ve told her this — the most effective first-term senator I’ve seen in my time in the Senate. She is, today, what we have too few of in the Democratic Party: a genuine moderate, and a dealmaker.”
