Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Monday said President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion stimulus plan “misses the mark,” while stating that several Democratic senators have told him they don’t support the measure.
“Experts and economists from the left to the right agree any further action should be smart and targeted, not just an imprecise deluge of borrowed money that would direct huge sums to those who don’t need it,” McConnell said on the floor. “That’s why the administration’s first draft of their sprawling proposal misses the mark, and press reports make clear this is not just a Republican view.”
