LOUISVILLE, Kentucky — McConnell Senate Committee campaign manager Kevin Golden today released the following statement regarding failed liberal politician Amy McGrath’s constant lies to Kentuckians amidst the coronavirus pandemic:
 
“The lives and livelihoods of Kentuckians are on the line, but Amy McGrath doesn’t think twice before lying to Kentuckians and creating confusion about coronavirus relief efforts. All McGrath would have to do to debunk her own lies is actually talk to Kentuckians instead of out-of-touch coastal liberals or pay attention to local news instead of watching liberal cable hosts. 
 
“Senator McConnell’s around-the-clock work to provide coronavirus relief has made more than a $9 billion impact for frontline heroes, small business owners and workers, and families across the Commonwealth. Small businesses have received more than $4 billion to stay afloat and pay their workers. Rural hospitals are getting critical supplies to treat patients. Schools of all levels, teachers, and students are receiving aid to help adjust to the changes of this school year. Senator McConnell’s efforts to help all Kentuckians battle the coronavirus are clear.
 
“McGrath chooses to ignore these wins for Kentucky and dives deeper into her campaign of deception. It’s clear that Amy McGrath is taking her campaign cues from coastal liberals who want Kentucky to move from the front of the line to the back.”
