Gov. Andy Beshear’s Urgent Blast to McConnell for Neglecting His Duty

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has spent the week hounding Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. to do “the bare minimum” and go on camera to prove he is alive.

McConnell’s unexplained absence undermines the work he’s done as senator, Beshear said in a SiriusXM podcast yesterday.

“I don’t think it’s a positive legacy, but I know he thinks his legacy is being the longest-serving majority leader in the Senate’s history,” Beshear said. “Well, guess what? On his Wikipedia page five years from now, that’s going to be a paragraph. But what we’re going through right now is going to be a page.”

In an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on July 28, Beshear said, “Only putting out two statements, not doing any interviews, not calling in when supposedly you’re talking to people, those are the types of signs that people see and become increasingly concerned.”

McConnell has now been absent from the Senate for 46 days due to a fall that left him unconscious, and a “mild case of pneumonia” that developed while he was in the hospital, according to the latest press release from his office.

The release stated that the senator has moved to a rehabilitation center, where he is doing physical therapy, but it did not say when he would return to the Senate. It only said that he’s working to come back “as soon as possible.”
