Press Releases - News - U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell
U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell:
The President will speak to the American people from the Oval Office tonight about a crisis in the Gulf that’s now in its ninth week. And if early reports are accurate, the President will use his remarks not as an occasion to unite the nation in a common effort to solve the immediate problem, but to make his case for a new national energy tax commonly known as Cap and Trade. If true, this means that the President plans to use the justifiable public outrage over an explosion that killed 11 people and the oil spill that followed as a tool for pushing a divisive new climate change policy even as hundreds of thousands of gallons of oil continue to spill into the Gulf each day."
