What Republicans Know (and Democrats Don’t) About the White Working Class: Resentment of those who get government assistance and are perceived not to have a work ethic has been a major driver of the shift to the Republican Party. https://t.co/mNZoZ8BxY9

@KYSecState: "People skip the midterm elections ... They've got it backwards. Who your mayor is, who your county judge-executive is ... matters way more to your daily life ... than who the president is."

Your vote is also more likely to matter.

🚨🚨🚨
These numbers confirm there are ZERO Black-majority districts in the proposed KY House map. You can’t add different minority groups to satisfy the Voting Rights Act.

This map is unlawful.

[Josh Douglas @JoshuaADouglas]

Introduced yesterday.

Zero transparency.

Zero public debate. Passed today.

Welcome to KY redistricting.

[Charles Booker @Booker4KY]

Let’s make freedom ring. Real freedom, from the hood to the holler.

We can start by taking our seat back from Rand Paul.

I’m running.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell after meeting with President Biden and Vice President Harris and congressional colleagues on infrastructure: “I think I’m safe in saying there’s certainly a bipartisan desire to get an outcome. ... We all agreed to work on that together”

[Jake Sherman @JakeSherman]

McConnell in Louisville: “They want to raise the corporate rate to the highest in the world … We’re not going to revisit the 2017 tax bill.”

Says Republicans will “take a look” at in infrastructure package. They can look @ user fees.

[Governor Andy Beshear @GovAndyBeshear]

I firmly believe we should be making it easier for Kentuckians to vote and participate in the democratic process. HB 574 represents the important first steps needed to preserve and protect every individual’s right to make their voice heard.

Douglas...who was part of a small team of county election officials & other experts who consulted with Adams on the initial effort, said that “it’s not the bill I would have written by any means.”

“But it has a lot of stuff I like and not a ton I hate.”

[Daniel Desrochers @drdesrochers]

Beshear is going to sign the legislature’s elections bill today. It allows for three days of early in person voting among other things.
“While some states have stepped in a different direction, I am very proud of Kentucky.”
