The Florida senator panned McConnell in the email, alleging that McConnell ousted him from the Commerce Committee for challenging him for the Republican leadership post last fall — something that McConnell has denied."Mitch McConnell removed me from a Senate Committee for challenging him for Republican Leader. This is what happens when you challenge leadership in Washington," Scott wrote in the email.
— Juliegrace Brufke February 26, 2023 Scott challenged McConnell unsuccessfully last fall to be the top Senate Republican, contending that the party needed fresh leadership. The two had been at odds over strategy during the midterm elections, and McConnell has publicly distanced himself from Scott's 12-point Republican agenda plan, which Democrats have latched onto.
McConnell has disputed Scott's assertion that booting him and Sen. Mike Lee , who backed Scott's challenge against McConnell, from the commerce panel was retribution. Rather, McConnell contends the move was necessary to make room for other senators.
