Later that day at 19:02 UTC, he commented on recent Congressional proceedings involving Secretary McMahon: “I am trying to make Congress work to improve the education system for Louisianans. Today’s meeting with Secretary McMahon was a step in that effort. Unfortunately, Democrats undermined a good-faith conversation with Secretary McMahon. We even rescheduled the original meeting so”.

At 20:54 UTC, Cassidy addressed his ongoing agenda related to healthcare costs and transparency: “My MVP Agenda puts money in your pocket for your out-of-pocket and gives families real price transparency, so families can choose the best care for them. https://t.co/1KsDzIeOQ5”.
