Outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said on Monday that President-elect Donald Trump’s administration should ask two judges who reversed their retirement decisions in recent weeks to recuse themselves in certain cases.

During remarks on the Senate floor on Monday, McConnell urged the incoming administration to “explore all available recusal options” in cases that come before two federal judges.
