Senator McConnell was struck with Polio when he was 2 years old, leaving him handicapped. This is why he slowly and carefully walked down the steps while holding onto the railing as protesters approached him.
A protester who identifies as “Roberto” posted a video to his Twitter account on Tuesday stating, “We confronted @SenateMajLdr and @SecElaineChao with @ProPublica audio of children separated from their families at the border while leaving a @Georgetown event. We must #AbolishICE & #AbolishCBP! #FreedomforImmigrants
