Certainly, that’s why Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has one of most dedicated and loyal staff on Capitol Hill. While he may appear gruff to outsiders, those close to him describe him as a father figure and head coach.“You never really leave the McTeam,” former top aide Don Stewart once told former C-SPAN anchor Steve Scully. “You are always on the team."
One of McConnell’s more endearing qualities is his practice of giving Senate floor tributes to his best aides and others he works with, including retiring senators and top Senate staff. "I'm very sorry to have to conclude my remarks today by bidding farewell to an integral member of my staff: my chief speechwriter and strategic communications director @AndrewCQuinn "— Howard Mortman June 8, 2023 His latest came this week in a 5-minute send-off to speechwriter and communications strategist Andrew Quinn, who is leaving McConnell’s staff after five years.
With Quinn sitting beside his boss, McConnell said, “It's been my great good fortune to have him on my team longer than anyone might reasonably hope to keep such great talent.” McConnell typically sprinkles personal details in his tributes, especially about family. In his speech, the leader said of his staffer, “We know that at his truest devotions are to his beloved wife, Amy, to the deep faith that they share, and to the wonderful family they're raising together. It's no secret that the demands of the Senate schedule are borne not only by senators and our staff, but in a unique way, by their families as well.
