Full Text

McConnell Proud to Confirm Mullin as Secretary of Homeland Security WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) issued the following statement today regarding the confirmation of Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) as U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security: "Markwayne Mullin has been a fierce advocate for the people of Oklahoma in Congress, and I-ve been proud to serve with him in the U.S. Senate for the last three years. His next job will entail even bigger responsibilities, from protecting America-s critical infrastructure to keeping the southern border secure. As Secretary Mullin gets to work, I look forward to working with him to defend our country from domestic and foreign threats. And I urge Senate Democrats to join Republicans in restoring the funding he-ll need to carry out DHS-s important mission."
