GOP senators shouldn't be working with Democrats on legislation.
"I wish they wouldn't be in the upper chamber," the lawmaker from Ohio1-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-6556 is1-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-6556
Jordan was delighted by Kevin McCarthy's stand against the Biden agenda.
When President Joe Biden entered the Oval Office last year, he expressed a commitment to working across the aisle with Republicans to craft legislation.
From last year's bipartisan infrastructure package to a recent $52 billion chips-funding bill, the administration has succeeded in getting support from Democrats and Republicans and breaking part of the filibuster logjam that has become an all-too-common form of blocking legislation in recent years.
The wave of consensus doesn't sit well with Jim Jordan, the conservative Ohio Republican who could play a major role in Congress next year if Republicans regain control of the House.
According to Jordan, Senate Republicans who support Biden's legislation are wrong.
The lawmaker wished his GOP counterparts in the upper chamber wouldn't do that.
While Senate Minority LeaderMitch McConnell of Kentucky has used sharply partisan maneuvering from Supreme Court nominations to GOP-led tax plans, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California has led his caucus against most of the administration

McCarthy didn't like the bipartisan infrastructure bill.
Some Senate Republicans are wary of taking McCarthy's approach as it relates to passing legislation because they are frustrated that he could dismiss good bills and allow Democrats to portray the party as inflexibility.
The Republican senator from West Virginia expressed her reservations.
"I wish McCarthy would take a deeper policy look at some of the issues that we've come together on, understanding they might want to make changes," she said. It's just being against. I would prefer to get things done.
