Description

Aaron, Doug and (eventually) Kimberly keep covering the Kentucky legislature — with the special treat of a dramatic reenactment of some VERY uncivil treatment of a civil servant by the my way or the highway GOP supermajority. We also highlight a new effort to ban drag shows by lumping them in with adult businesses in a bad bill that’s moving forward as we speak, we touch base on a baseless effort to force a Louisville House Democrat off the ballot  -  then we close with a double-duty call to action

CALL TO ACTION: Call the legislative comment line: 1-800-372-7181

Our 1st CTA is from the League of Women Voters of Kentucky related to Senate Bill 6 which is referred to as the Anti DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) bill.  Call and ask ALL SENATE MEMBERS to vote against SB 6

Our 2nd is from KY Conservation Committee: Senate Bill 349 (Mills) has passed the Senate and is now in House Natural Resources, where it can go to the full House immediately after their meeting on Thursday. CALL your Representative and ask the “full House” to OPPOSE!
