WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) praised President Donald J. Trump today for his intent to nominate Kenny Allen of Hopkins County, Kentucky, to serve on the Board of Directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA):

“I congratulate Kenny Allen, of Hopkins County, Kentucky, on his nomination to serve on the Board of Directors for the Tennessee Valley Authority. Kenny’s experience providing affordable and reliable energy to the people of our home state has given him a deep understanding of the industry, its challenges and its future. He is fully equipped to help lead the TVA in its mission to serve more than 9 million people in the southeast, many of them Kentuckians.
