Sen. Mullin Bridges Gap With House Republicans
Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., has become something of a "House whisperer" to his Senate Republican colleagues, Politico reported.
Mullin, who was elected to the Senate after a decade in the House, has shown the ability to help the two chambers find common ground as they butt heads on how to advance President Trump's agenda.
"He plays a very constructive role," Senate Majority Leader John Thune told Politico. "He's just a guy who is always looking and driving to try to get things done."
Thune had credited Mullin with helping to open useful "lines of communication."
