Washington Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday promised quick action in the chamber on a newly unveiled GOP police reform proposal, challenging Democrats to decide whether to block the legislation from advancing or allow it to come up for debate on the floor.
"What I'm announcing today is after we do two circuit judges who are queued up either this week or early next week, we're going to turn to the Scott bill," McConnell said, referring to Senate GOP legislation led by Republican Sen. Tim Scott. McConnell made the remarks during a Capitol Hill press conference to formally unveil the legislation.
Mitch, looks like he just barely put that mask on.
so amazing to me how one house can pass bipartisan Lee 400 and some odd bills and Mitch McConnell somehow has the authority to decide to not bring them to the senate floor for a vote that way they can say do nothing Democrats even though those bills were past bipartisanly
Wow, quick action, I wonder why he's speeding? When it was for gun reform, pale face had 2 speeds, dead slow and stop, understand!
Why aren’t you guys talking about the five black man who have been hung in different parts of the country within one week? That’s a story right?
The only time Mitch is quick, is when he's got the shits in the morning.
I thought Mitch was against action in an election year
... interviews you will never see on 60 minutes ... What is it like day to day hour to hour living next to CHAZ
if its bad Dems should tell him to go kick rocks.
The GOP Senate wants us to believe they are concerned for Black lives when they have ONE black Senator out of 53? They are the Senate of old ,white, rich, men!!!!
Quick, as in fast, or quick as in the same pace he walks?
We don’t need to debate we got the 🗣DEMANDS GeorgeFloyd BlackLivesMatter BLM 💪🏿🔥💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏿🔥🔥🔥💪🏿💪🏿💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
In the past 3 years Moscow Mitch has refused to brng many House bills to the floor, so it’s ironic that he would place this on the Democrats if they refuse to allow this bill to be debated on the Senate floor. Let’s see if Moscow allows the House bill any floor time.
Tim Scott is like the plantation black brought into the house to serve the white masters with alcohol. When he finishes back to the fields he goes
ENCOURAGES: no chokeholds, use of body cams, curtail no knock warrants or possible no federal funding. USELESS. Reform is change, not suggestions. DEMAND outlawing of chokeholds. DEMAND no knock warrants be abolished. DEMAND body cams on EVERY officer. Enough tip-toeing GOP!
Mitch and this police reform proposal are a joke!
Where do We turn when Congress & Celebrities turn away? When You plead into a void where Your voice echoes & fades to silence. His Aftercare can run $200,000, PLEASE,just 🔄,so more 👀 see & hopefully donate to help,THANK YOU SO MUCH!😍 JamesNewHeart
My guess is the Democrats will at least look at the proposal and decide what to do. Unlike GrimReaper / MoscowMitch who won’t even look at anything passed in the house only because the House is run by Dems., now tell me who are the DO NOTHINGS. Republicans are pathetic.
GloriousWednesdayService Repent .Prepare .
Status quo - no vote required MoscowMitch
Better to get it done right than to just get it done.
It does nothing.

Don't buy a WORD of his shit!!! It's a setup to make them look like Dems don't want the reform they're SOOOOO generously offering
McCONNEL IS PLAYING HIS GAMES AGAIN WITH A BILL THAT REALLY DOESN'T CHANGE ANYTHING AND TRYING TO PASS IT ON TO DEMOCRATS TO BLAME THEM FOR NOT PASSING HIS CRAPPY BILL !!!!! McCONNEL HAS TO GO TO GET REAL LEGISLATION TO FIX THE PROBLEMS !!!
Perhaps a group of protesters should hang outside of his house and office and shamed him into doing his job....singing, music, noisemakers, chants..... everywhere he goes!!

Republicans want to look like heroes. The GOP is truly the enemy of the people. BlackLivesMatter VoteOutTheGOP

MoscowMitchMcConnell didn't do anything for 8 years while BarackObama was POTUS
Barry recommends. Trump acts.
