Western Kentucky’s delegation to Washington, D.C. has predictably responded well to the President’s State of the Union address.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell issued a statement reiterating many of the president’s claims from the speech and saying he has been ‘especially proud’ to work with the president over the last three years to ‘transform the federal courts for a generation.’

Meanwhile, Senator Rand Paul tweeted he agrees with the president that it’s time to leave endless wars in the Middle East.

Western Kentucky Congressman James Comer says he shares the president’s “priorities of continuing to create more opportunity for American workers, lowering healthcare costs, and securing our southern border.”

Comer’s guest for the occasion was Trigg County resident Terry Hamby.
