Mitch McConnell: “Let me begin by expressing my gratitude to the President, his entire Cabinet, and our soldiers and sailors for the quick…”

As always, I appreciate all of your continued well wishes, and I’m looking forward to getting back to the Senate and to Kentucky soon.

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…

There’s no place I’d rather be on the first Saturday in August than with the good people of western Kentucky, feasting on pork and mutton.

And I’ll continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.
