Dear @realDonaldTrump: I served on active duty in the United States military. We are not mercenaries. We are not bargaining chips. We don’t deploy for money.
Our troops exist to protect the Constitution and the national security of the United States. Get it?

I’ve had to go to court twice to protect the voters of Kentucky and I have no problem going a third time.

“The governor needs to explain why he put someone who had to be fired from the VA for putting veterans in harm’s way in charge of a growing, life-and-death public health crisis.” #kygov

The opioid crisis has ravaged our communities & killed our neighbors. I'm aggressively holding the big drug companies accountable. Matt Bevin spends his time making up false claims and opposing our efforts at every turn, including our opioid lawsuit against Johnson & Johnson.
I'm disappointed that when Matt Bevin came to Bowling Green he made clear he doesn't support the bill I've introduced to protect health care for Kentuckians with pre-existing conditions. As the mother of a son with Type 1 diabetes, this fight is deeply personal to me.
Former Lexington Police Chief Ronnie Bastin understands that Kentucky needs a governor who will put our communities first and tackle this opioid epidemic head-on. I'm grateful for his support.
Earlier this week, Matt Bevin got caught taking a taxpayer-funded state plane all over the country. Now, he's telling Kentuckians it's "none of their business" what he was doing on these personal trips. Folks, this is YOUR plane, it IS your business. He needs to come clean.
I didn’t join in the black-tie, champagne and red carpet celebration when this project was announced. Sadly, I’ve learned the games that get played with struggling communities. I hope those who invested get their money back, but I wouldn’t bet on it....
The end of bullying Kentucky’s Educators begins with investing in our schools, students, and educators! Raises for our teachers, student loan forgiveness for educators, & a living wage for Kentucky’s ESP’s, is how we move KY forward! Thank you @AndyBeshearKY & @JColemanKY!
Weeks after claiming teachers broke the law, Bevin's administration just released a sham report about their intrusive & vengeful investigation. They dug through emails, visitor logs & tried to get surveillance footage to target teachers. Bevin's war on public education must stop.
Kentucky’s educators are accustomed to dealing with classroom bullies, but this is the first time we can remember one of them making it all the way to the Governor’s mansion.

Last week, my office found that almost 1,000 miners are at risk because the Bevin administration isn't enforcing a paycheck protection law. Every day they spend making excuses is another day those miners are left unprotected. It's time for Matt Bevin to do his job. #KYGov
Governor, you just handed big pharma a huge win. These companies force families to choose between buying food or medicine. They’ve poisoned our communities and killed our neighbors. I’m fighting to make them pay for the damage they’ve done, and you’re just doing their bidding.
We may be Kentucky Democrats, but we have republicans visit our booth all the time at the #KYStateFair. That includes Terry, a Taylor County teacher and registered republican, who’s not only voting for @AndyBeshearKY, she bought his shirt too!
Are you for real? My dad was a cop. I was first in family to go to college. Now I’m in Congress. @realDonaldTrump was given daddy’s millions. And you’re a felon. Do the math.
For most Kentuckians, this is the first or second week of school. Please take the time to thank an educator, bus driver, or other staff member. Governor Bevin attacks them, I say we celebrate them.
#BREAKING Good guys had guns. Over 100 #Philadelphia officers were on scene trying to take down a shooter firing hundreds of rounds for 7 hrs. 6 were shot. Thank god for our cops but can we cut the bullshit that we are all safer if more non-cops have guns? #EnoughIsEnough
Wonder why @senatemajldr let four gun violence bills sit on his desk for 6 months?
Seems 1.6 million in NRA $$ is more important than the thousands killed/injured from gun violence this year.
