Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) denied that any “reprisal” or “animus” played a role in his decision to remove Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) from the Commerce Committee, The Hill reports.
Said McConnell: “He had a temporary assignment on the committee, the way we do things, for two years. He could have traded in one of his permanent committees for Commerce and stayed on it.”
