Statement

U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) praised the President's decision to nominate Lyon County Judge-Executive Wade White to the Board of Directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA):

"Congratulations to my friend, Judge Wade White, for his nomination to serve on the Board of Directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority. He is the first Kentuckian nominated for the TVA Board under this administration and will bring a unique Bluegrass perspective to the job.

"Wade and I have worked together closely for years on issues like Barkley Dam, Land Between the Lakes, and Asian Carp. I know he has the experience and expertise to continue to provide affordable, reliable energy to the 10 million TVA customers in the southeast, many of them Kentuckians. I look forward to the Senate confirming Wade's nomination and putting this proven leader on the TVA Board."

Senator McConnell recommended Judge White to the President for this position.
