Mitch McConnell reportedly urged Americans to wear a mask at a Wednesday event in Kentucky.
Business Insider reports he is quoted as saying "you have an obligation." "There's no stigma attached to wearing a mask.
There's no stigma attached to staying six feet apart." McConnell said.
The remarks are a stark contrast to Trump, who has refused to wear one in public.
Trump also recently mocked a reporter who did so at a White House press conference.
