Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says he will allow President-elect Joe Biden’s cabinet nominees to get consideration by the upper chamber.
Biden’s nominees “aren’t all going to pass on a voice vote, and they aren’t all going to make it, but I will put them on the floor,” McConnell said in an interview with Scott Jennings, a conservative commentator, published Monday in the Louisville Courier-Journal in McConnell’s home state of Kentucky.
