The Senate Conservatives Fund, a political action committee that opposes the deal ending the shutdown that Senate Minority Leader McConnell helped orchestrate, charged that it contained a provision in the legislation that amounted to a “Kentucky kickback.”
The provision authorizes more than $2.8 billion in funding for the troubled Olmsted Locks and Dam project on the Ohio River between Kentucky and Illinois.
McConnell’s office referred questions about the provision to Sens. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., the chairwoman and ranking member of the Senate energy and water subcommittee, respectively.
