The No. 2 Senate Republican is taking umbrage after the White House budget director called on senators to keep voting on health care and not turn to other topics until they succeed.
Sen. John Cornyn of Texas says Mick Mulvaney has “got a big job, he ought to do that job and let us do our jobs.”
Cornyn also remarks of Mulvaney, a former House member, “I don’t think he’s got much experience in the Senate, as I recall.”
Mulvaney appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday. He said the Senate should not move on to other issues after Obamacare repeal legislation failed on the floor last week, and instead keep trying. But Senate Republicans say they don’t have the votes and it’s time to move on.
