What a day at @CaseysCut in Hopkinsville. Celebrating President Trump’s big win for bourbon—eliminating UK tariffs after King Charles’ visit.
Honored to be endorsed and joined today by Senator @KYCraigR and Judge Jerry Gilliam. God bless Kentucky!

Terrible news and so heartbreaking. Tatum was the best and made the commonwealth better. So so sorry for this loss, prayers for her family and friends.
It is with an incredibly heavy heart that I announce the passing of Tatum Dale, my longtime District Director, Deputy Chief of Staff, and Campaign Manager. My full statement is below:
“When I first ran to serve the Sixth District, Tatum Dale was one of the first people who volunteered to help. Born and raised in Murray, Tatum came to the University of Kentucky for college, and I’m forever grateful that she stayed to serve alongside me. For over 15 years, Tatum was the heart and soul of my team. She held almost every job in my office—Scheduler, Field Representative, Deputy District Director, District Director, then Deputy Chief of Staff and Campaign Manager for my U.S. Senate run.
“With Tatum’s leadership, my office favorably closed thousands of cases for Kentuckians—helping veterans, seniors, and families throughout our district. She fought to deliver funds to support dozens of community projects across our Commonwealth. She loved helping people and was a servant of others, just as Christ envisioned us all to be. Maybe that’s why her birth in heaven is a shared birthday with our Lord and Savior. While our hearts are broken, our team finds peace and hope knowing that Tatum is now home with Christ, resting comfortably in the arms of her Savior.
“Tatum loved her family, her faith, and her Commonwealth. She made me a better Congressman, our staff better public servants, and we will all miss her forever. From Murray to Lexington and everywhere in the Commonwealth that she touched, we hope you will all join us in praying for Tatum’s family and friends—and be forever inspired by her memory to serve others.”
Farmers, coal miners, and families in West Kentucky are served well by @KYCraigR in the State Senate. Thrilled to welcome Senator Richardson to our growing team in West Kentucky. We will do great things for the region!
Today we honor the heroes who’ve worn our nation’s uniform.
Representing the brave soldiers, veterans & families of Fort Campbell is one of my greatest honors.
🇺🇸 Thank you for your courage, sacrifice & service. #VeteransDay
While discussing ways to support working families, lawmakers emphasized that Kentucky’s long-term growth depends on improving affordability in housing, child care, and more. Rep. Susan Witten, Sen. Robby Mills, Sen. Craig Richardson, Rep. Samara Heavrin, and Elizabeth Whitehouse of Whitehouse Strategies focused on reducing regulatory barriers, expanding infrastructure, and strengthening access to housing and child care to help more Kentuckians join and stay in the workforce.
The Governor’s budget director admitted they won’t work with the legislature on Kentucky’s budget. When they go it alone, programs like seniors’ meals run out of money. Kentuckians deserve leaders who work together—not create avoidable problems. 🎥 Watch below.
Big thanks to another fantastic panel at today's Health Policy Conference! Senators Steve Meredith, Craig Richardson, and Karen Berg did an amazing job discussing Medicaid and the upcoming Kentucky General Assembly. @karenforky@kycraigr
@MattDeneen1 & @KYCraigR thank President Trump for standing with America’s heroes.
As the Senators who represents Fort Knox and Fort Campbell, they praised President Trump for ensuring our service members continue receiving their paychecks during the federal shutdown. They’ve called on Gov. Beshear to show the same leadership for Kentucky seniors still waiting for a solution to the meals crisis
@anmer277 @Hebbom_heb@bennyjohnson I’m not Jewish, they can call it whatever they want. But in response to what LDS members call our buildings, we call it a church.
