My phone has been ringing off the hook.
One call I won't forget was from a mother whose adult son lives with serious mental health challenges and early-onset dementia.
While politicians in Washington spend their time taking care of corporate donors and repeating partisan talking points, I'm out here listening to the people of Kentucky's 1st District because that's who I'm running to serve.
The heat is on! Got the email update on the KET debate for the General Election.
This will be the only effectively "required" debate stage that Mr. Comer will be expected to show up for. Considering it does not allow for personal loans to the campaign, need to raise around $14,000 or so before June 30th to safely be inside the margins to make this happen.
$14,000 might seem like alot... but we have raised roughly $9,000 in the last 7 days! I would happily debate Mr. Comer each and every day until the election on any topic or in any style of choosing but I am sure the feeling is not mutual.
So. If YOU want to see me debate Mr. Comer, here is your chance! If we don't raise it, we are still going to be running the same race and getting ready for Fancy Farm on August 1st!
(see how I am not grasping for Special Interest PAC dollars to make sure I reach some arbitrary success deadline marker lol)
You can donate by sending a Check to P.O. Box 77, Benton KY 42025 or you can donate online https://t.co/5DR5z5qTjR
Know that even if this campaign didn't have a single dollar raised, I would still be trying to find ways to be here for you.
CORRECTION!

I’m not taking corporate PAC money. This campaign is powered by neighbors who believe we deserve better.
If you believe we can build something better together, chip in today and help us keep this movement growing.
@aflcioky Together, we're building a movement focused on lowering costs, strengthening our communities, protecting workers, and making sure government works for the people again.
I'm grateful for their support, and I'm ready to take Kentucky values to Washington.
I am here for you.
I've spent my life working with my hands, building boat docks, serving my community, and listening to the people who keep Kentucky moving.
That's why I'm honored to earn the endorsement of the @aflcioky.
@aflcioky The Kentucky AFL-CIO represents workers who believe in dignity, fairness, and the value of a hard day's work. Those are values I share.
Working people deserve leaders who show up, listen, and fight for them, not politicians who answer to corporate donors and special interests.
Being a dad has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.
From the moment I held my child, I knew my life had changed. I am grateful every day to watch them grow and learn. Fatherhood has taught me patience, resilience, and unconditional love. It emphasizes being present and cherishing every moment. The joy, pride, and challenges have enriched my life immensely. Today, I celebrate the bond we share—a journey of laughter, learning, and love.
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads who cherish this incredible journey.
