Democrats set to use McConnell's legislative graveyard against him

Democrats set to use McConnell's legislative graveyard against him-thehill: House Democrats are hoping to use Sen. Mitch McConnell's “legislative graveyard” as a messaging tool to topple GOP candidates in 2020. McConnell (R-KY), the Senate majority leader, is embracing his role as a roadblock to the Democrats' legislative agenda, casting himself as the “Grim Reaper” poised to kill the Democrats’ top policy priorities. The barrier has frustrated Democrats as they fight to advance legislation they promised voters in 2018, but they also see it as a political gift heading into next year's elections.
