Sen. Mike Lee Proposes Reforms for Post-McConnell Senate Leadership

Lee aims to decentralize power and enhance debate in the Senate as Republicans prepare for new leadership.

Sen. Mike Lee has outlined reforms to limit the power of the next Senate Republican leader, focusing on decentralizing authority.
Lee's proposals include giving senators more opportunities to propose amendments and requiring a substantial majority to block them.
He advocates for a four-week period to debate and amend omnibus spending bills, aiming for more transparent legislative processes.
The reforms emphasize setting annual policy goals for the GOP conference to ensure cohesive strategies and Republican victories.
Lee also calls for leadership to only support bills or nominees with majority backing from the Republican conference.
