McConnell tears into Biden’s ‘unpresidential’ attacks

In early January 2022, President Biden gave a speech in Atlanta, Georgia, calling on the Senate to pass Democrats’ federal voting reform. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) took to the Senate floor to criticize the speech as hypocritical and unpresidential.

Discussion Questions

Do you think McConnell’s characterization of the speech is correct? If so, does that undermine Democrats’ efforts to pass new election laws?
