"Conservative Backlash: McConnell's Replacement Sparks GOP Infighting"
Conservative gun rights groups, including Gun Owners of America and the National Association for Gun Rights, have strongly opposed Senator John Cornyn's bid to replace Mitch McConnell as Senate minority leader. They criticized Cornyn for compromising with Democrats on gun control bills and accused him of being "wholly unfit" to lead Republicans in the Senate due to his record on gun rights. Cornyn's office did not immediately respond to the criticism.
