McConnell Focuses On Economy

{Louisville, Kentucky}... U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell says Mitt Romney should stop any new regulations aimed at coal and rule out tax increases if he wins the presidency on November 6th. McConnell says that’s what’s needed to kick-start the slumping private sector. Speaking to a group of about 100 young professionals in Louisville, McConnell also renewed his call for action to control federal spending on Medicare and Social Security, saying both entitlement programs are on “unsustainable paths” because Americans are living longer and doing nothing risks both programs.
