U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell was recognized as a 2024 “Hero of Main Street” by the National Retail Federation (NRF) for his work to help advance public policy that encourages a vibrant and healthy retail sector. Senator McConnell was presented the award by Scott Vinson, VP of Government Affairs at NRF, and Dana Midkiff, Owner of Pink Door Wreaths in Shepherdsville, Kentucky. The “Hero of Main Street” award was created by NRF in 2013 to recognize a bipartisan group of lawmakers for their support of the retail industry’s public policy priorities.
