There are 38 Democrats in Kentucky’s House of Representatives.
18 of them — including the Dem Leader, the Dem Caucus Chair, and the Dem Whip — endorsed @Booker4KY in the Democratic Primary.
This is no fluke. Charles Booker is a powerful unifier that can defeat Mitch McConnell.
This will be an incredible leadership team and will lead our club well as we continue activity in the election cycle.
From the outgoing leadership team, thank you to the Kentucky Democratic community for being so supportive and kind! Keep on fighting the good fight!

Practically every day I see a tweet or blog post about someone who wrongly thought COVID-19 was a hoax dying of COVID-19 and all I can think about are the members of the media and politicians who mis-informed that person and who assuredly feel zero responsibility.
Kentucky has some of the greatest educators and education advocates in the country, and we have an opportunity to celebrate them. If you know a policymaker, educator or citizen who has made a notable contribution to the improvement of Kentucky's public education system,... 1/2
The question is not whether Trump has committed impeachable crimes. He has.
The question is whether Republicans in Congress will affirm that an American president is not above the law.
