The nomination of Judge White now goes to the full Senate for consideration. “With today’s vote, the Senate moved one step closer to placing my friend Judge Wade White on the TVA Board of Directors and finally adding a Kentuckian’s voice to an organization with significant influence over Kentuckians’ lives," said Senator McConnell. "The 215,000 Kentucky households that rely on TVA for their everyday power needs deserve a representative who understands the importance of affordable, reliable power. As proven by his successful tenure as Lyon County Judge-Executive, Wade is just that leader. I look forward to the full Senate approving this highly qualified nominee and adding a commonsense, Kentucky perspective to the TVA Board.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:29:59Z |
