LOUISVILLE, Kentucky — McConnell Senate Committee press secretary Kate Cooksey today released the following statement regarding Amy McGrath’s refusal to attend the Kentucky Farm Bureau’s Measure the Candidate Forum:

“Amy McGrath represents the interests of liberal elites who couldn’t find plowed ground if their lives depended upon it. Her decision to snub Kentucky farmers is right in line with her leftist candidacy that seeks to remove Kentucky’s voice in Washington and replace it with another vote for New York and California.”
