Leader McConnell: Can we deal with a big issue in a serious way?
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) says that the price of gas at the pump is the most important subject in the U.S. He says that the only way to bring down the price of oil is to expand domestic production. McConnell says that the beginning bill only focuses on a small part of the problem, and focusing on speculation only will have no impact. He is curious to see if Congress will rise to the occasion and give the issue the attention it needs. (2:05)
