Description | You see, as mentioned above, the Majority Leader is not constitutionally endowed with any special powers. It is senate tradition that the Vice-President give the floor leaders priority recognition.
Therefore, should Vice-President-Elect Kamala Harris decide so, she could give priority recognition to any senator (the Minority Leader, for example) who would then be able to bring votes to the floor as they see fit. This would effectively render Mitch McConnell and the office he has abused the powers of so much powerless. |
