WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA), has lauded Senator Mitch McConnell's contributions and legacy following McConnell's announcement to retire as minority leader in November. In a statement, Dr. Cassidy commended McConnell for his dedication to key conservative issues during his time in leadership.

"Mitch McConnell fought for a safer America. Because of him, we have a conservative Supreme Court for years to come. He led the fight for lower taxes and a strong military. With characteristic concern for the Senate, he picked his time to leave leadership," said Dr. Cassidy.

McConnell's decision to step down as minority leader has sparked reflections on his tenure and the impact he has had on the Senate and the nation as a whole. Dr. Cassidy's words add to the growing chorus of appreciation for McConnell's service and accomplishments in the Senate.

As the Senate prepares for a transition in leadership, McConnell's departure marks the end of an era in Senate politics. His strategic leadership and commitment to conservative principles have left a lasting imprint on the institution and the legislative landscape.

The statement from Dr. Cassidy underscores the respect and admiration that McConnell's colleagues hold for him as he prepares to pass the baton to a new generation of Senate leaders.
