WASHINGTON \u2014 Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell warned Tuesday that shutdowns are a political liability for his party as Congress faces a Sept. 30 deadline to keep the government open.<\/p>\n

At his weekly press conference Tuesday afternoon, McConnell, R-Ky., made it very clear that\u00a0he\u2019s \u201cnot a fan of government shutdowns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve seen a few of them over the years. They never have produced a policy change and they\u2019ve always been a loser for Republicans politically,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

McConnell’s comments come as Speaker Kevin McCarthy and House Republicans are scrambling to pass a short-term funding bill that would keep the government running through Oct. 31 amid opposition from hard-line conservatives. But even if that funding measure manages to clear the House, it’s laden with conservative policy provisions that make it dead on arrival in the Senate. <\/p>\n

With less than two weeks left to act, a shutdown at the end of the month app<\/a>ears increasingly likely.<\/p>\n

Asked about the House’s bill to keep the government funded for another month, McConnell said he supports \u201cwhat the Speaker is trying to accomplish because he\u2019s trying to avoid a government shutdown.”<\/p>\n

\u201cSo we\u2019re pulling for the Speaker and hoping we can move forward,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

McConnell declined to make predictions about what the House would do. <\/p>\n

“What I do think is critically important to the American people is for the government not to shut down. …\u00a0But I can\u2019t predict exactly how this ends. We\u2019ll see what the House does and act accordingly,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
