From the Hood to Hillbilly Days, my message is about family. Today, I took the stage in Pikeville to talk about the strength of Kentucky. We’ve seen dark times, but through it all, we lock arms and keep on fighting. It will be my honor to stand for Kentucky in the U.S. Senate.

HB 500, the House budget bill, doesn't just propose major cuts to the health care of school and state employees, it proposes major cuts to education generally.

🚨 ACTION ALERT: HB 312 & 517 are moving fast in Kentucky. These bills expand concealed carry to 18–20 year olds and allow guns in K-12 schools. There’s no evidence this makes kids safer. Call 800-372-7181 (866-840-6574 Spanish) or take action: kftc.org/HB312 & kftc.org/HB517 #LetThemBeYoung
