Leader McConnell Meets With Scott Bessent

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) issued the following statement today on his meeting with Scott Bessent:

“I was glad to meet today with President-elect Trump’s nominee to serve as Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent. Over four years, the Biden Administration’s runaway spending handed working families and job creators the worst inflation in four decades. Righting the ship will require a steady hand and deep expertise. The President-elect was right to turn to Mr. Bessent to lead the Treasury Department through this vital work.”
