Mitch McConnell: “Thank you, Senator Shelby and Senator DeWine for staying to the end.”

When I first attended forty-two years ago, Fancy Farm was a pretty lonely place to be a Republican.

I’m still working hard to get back to my full schedule of work in the Senate and in Kentucky, keeping up with intense physical therapy per my doctors’ orders. Unfortunately, that means I won’t be able to make it to Fancy Farm, Kentucky…

I'll maintain an intensive regimen of physical therapy from home during the state work period, and I'll continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.

You all know how folks of my generation often hesitate to share the vulnerability that comes with growing older.
