WASHINGTON — Mitch McConnell has purposefully steered clear of previewing what policies a Republican-led Senate would prioritize if his party recaptures the chamber in a month.
Unburdened by such political calculus, a band of conservative policy mavens have for months been sketching out the most palatable ideas a narrow GOP majority could pursue.
The state of play for the Senate remains scrambled, with a bevy of margin-of-error races in Nevada, Wisconsin and Georgia likely to determine which party wields power in 2023. McConnell himself has signaled less confidence now than in earlier months when GOP prospects looked rosier.
