LOUISVILLE, KY – U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) released the following statement today regarding former Kentucky State Police Trooper Donald ‘Doc’ Holliday:

“Elaine and I join the entire Hazard community in mourning the loss of former Kentucky State Police Trooper Doc Holliday.

‘Kentucky is leading the national response to the devastating opioid epidemic, and the federal resources announced today will reinforce their life-saving work. As Senate Majority Leader, I helped ensure these funds are directed to the hardest-hit states, including Kentucky, where they can have the greatest impact’

‘For our part, we promise this: While we remain Members of this body, the Democrats’ threat to “restructure” the Court is an empty one. We share Justice Ginsburg’s view that “nine seems to be a good number.” And it will remain that way as long as we are here.’
