It’s sad that the people of Eastern Kentucky are stuck with this old ghoul who has maintained our status as one of the poorest congressional districts in the country for decades

I’m very happy to see this bill did not make it through the Senate committee. I’m glad at least some of our state legislators care about protecting children from unethical, unfair labor practices

[Austin Horn @_AustinHorn]

Was not expecting this: House Bill 255, the one that relaxes certain child labor laws (for kids aged 16-17), did not make it through Senate Econ Development Cmte. Only 5 'aye' votes in committee.

Thank you to @tscconline for publishing my article about the effects of #HB255 and #HB367. These bills will negatively impact low income youth and families around Kentucky. Please contact your State Senators before it comes to a vote.

This is standard policy for the Republican Party: dismantle public education and make it harder for rural, poor, and BIPOC children to be successful. @KellyCraftKY just slipped up and said the quiet part out loud.

[American Bridge 21st Century @American_Bridge]

.@KellyCraftKY says that if she's the governor of Kentucky, she will dismantle the Department of Education.

Republicans can't be trusted to stand up for kids, families, or teachers — we can't let them win in November.

NEW: Um, so about those required charter schools in Kentucky.

No one wants to open them.

Hmmmm it’s like congresspeople should be banned from trading individual stocks

[Nancy Pelosi Stock Tracker ♟ @pelositracker]

BREAKING🚨:

The DOJ has officially opened up a lawsuit against Google to break up its Ad Technology Monopoly

Pelosi sold $3 Million dollars worth of Google just four weeks ago

Wild.

This man is sick. The targeting of trans people, specifically students, is only going to get more invasive and dangerous if things like this go unchecked.

[NBC News @NBCNews]

Florida Gov. DeSantis is asking state universities for the number and ages of their students who sought or received gender dysphoria treatment, including sex reassignment surgery and hormone prescriptions, according to a survey released Wednesday. https://t.co/zPIz2Xtl1P

A 30% sales tax might be one of the worst economic policies put forth in a while, just truly idiotic

[Charles Booker @Booker4KY]

Lynching is a tool of terror. It was used to kill hopes for freedom. In Kentucky, it was used to kill three of my uncles.

In this historic election, the choice is clear. Rand Paul may want to divide us, but hate won’t win this time.

It’s time to move forward, together.

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

The Democratic Party needs to stop acting like they do not control the Senate, House of Representatives, and the White House.

It is time to protect basic human rights and codify the right to an abortion. We’ve already voted for you, now do what you’ve been elected to do.

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

Reproductive rights are on the ballot.

Voters will make their voices heard. We will fight back with everything we have. Republicans will have to answer for their party's relentless attacks on Americans' rights.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

The leak didn’t erode the court’s legitimacy.

Bush v Gore did.
Mitch McConnell denying Obama's nominee and then stealing a seat did.
Lying under oath and then taking away our rights did.

Republicans will focus on the leak to deflect from the Roe ruling. But we see you.

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

It is time to codify Roe v. Wade. The Democrats control the House, Senate, and White House, it’s time to protect every person’s right to an abortion. There are no excuses.

[Gravel Institute @GravelInstitute]

Even if Roe is struck down, Congress could pass a law giving every American woman the right to choose. Just because the Supreme Court decides it's not a right found in the Constitution doesn't mean a law couldn't be passed enshrining it.

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

Yesterday’s vote on Kentucky teachers (HB 258) was an absolute disgrace. My former opponent ran on supporting teachers, yet he betrayed us the first chance he got. Republican legislators are the biggest threat to education in our commonwealth. #ProudPublicSchoolTeacher

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

@hoodtotheholler Wolfe County here! I would love to help in any way I can!

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

Thank you @heraldleader for publishing my Op-Ed on Hillbilly Elegy. Appalachian people are tired of the lazy caricatures of our region. We are proud and we will move forward, as we always have. https://t.co/qSVn9ioJkt

[Charles Booker @Booker4KY]

Just a random reminder that Rand Paul single-handedly blocked the Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act from becoming law.

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

We fell short of our goal in today’s election, but we have made our voices heard. I want to thank everyone for being so supportive. This campaign has come to an end, but my fight for the people of eastern Kentucky is just beginning. We will move forward, together. Thank you all!

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

I was out campaigning today and none other than my gran was pulled over on the side of the road picking walnuts. Y’all know I had to pull over and help her fill buckets up!

[Will Hurst @WillHurstKY]

If you want a State Representative who will represent you and not just one political party, I am your candidate. All the decisions I make will be guided by the people in our counties and experts in the fields we work with.
