Scott Says Senate GOP Leadership ‘Caved’ to Democrats

Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) on Sunday said Senate GOP leadership “caved” to Democrats on a number of legislative bills over the past year, citing that as one reason Republicans did not perform as well as projected in the midterm elections, The Hill reports.

Said Scott: “What do we stand for? What are we hell-bent to get done? The leadership in the Republican Senate says, ‘No, you cannot have a plan. We’re just going to run against how bad the Democrats are.’ And, actually, then they cave into the Democrats.”
