Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is the "longest-serving Senate leader in history," according to The Associated Press, but he plans to step down from his position in November.
In addition to McConnell allies Senators John Thune (R-SD) and John Cornyn (R-TX), Senator Rick Scott (R-FL), is also vying to take the Kentucky lawmaker's spot.
"We haven't been fighting to get better stuff done,"Scott told Axios on Wednesday. "Republicans in D.C. don't have a plan."

Per Axios, "Scott's bid to become the next Senate GOP leader is centered on significant changes he's proposing to Republican conference rules."
The Sunshine State leader "is pushing six-year term limits for party leaders and telling colleagues he would seek to devolve power by enforcing regular order — the process by which legislation comes to the floor through committees — rather than consolidating power in the hands of leadership," according to Axios.
A MAGA supporter and former Florida governor, Scott told the news outlet that he let Donald Trump know about his bid for GOP leader ahead of announcing last week.
Scott emphasized that if Trump wins in November, his main focus as Senate leader would be to "try to get the president's agenda passed."

"If you don't want big change, no one should elect me," Scott told Axios.
