I was misquoted by a reporter, and now am in the midst of a media storm – people who care about the REAL story should read here:

Lawd.
10 minutes into this town-hall is all I need to remind me how much I can’t stand Mike Pence.
And why is he always squinting?

This Labor Day, the state should begin to focus on policies that honor the contributions of hardworking Kentuckians.

This Labor Day, we’re looking at how the economy is working for working people.

Here’s a look at how Black Kentuckians were hit harder by COVID layoffs. Despite making up 9.9% of the workforce in UI-eligible jobs, Black workers made 17.3% of UI claims at the end of 2021.

In the wake of the devastating floods in Eastern Kentucky, the work of IACG member @appalachianky is more important than ever. We need to accelerate resources to working charities that help their communities, especially in times of crisis.

On GivingTuesday, a Plea for Congress to Pass Legislation That Would Make a Difference to Charities Nationwide https://t.co/CvTjL6CVqW

[The Chronicle of Philanthropy @Philanthropy]

A bill in Congress would require that money deposited in donor-advised funds be distributed to working charities within 15 years for the donors to take an immediate tax deduction. Community foundations are deeply divided over the proposal. https://t.co/eppjjVgQ3x

Stark reminder of inequity.

Rittenhouse killed two men w/an AR-15. Found not guilty.
Tamir Rice was shot by police for having a toy gun.

Christopher Belter raped 4 girls. Given no jail time.
Two men were exonerated after serving decades for Malcom X murder they did not commit.

[The Initiative to Accelerate Charitable Giving @accelgiving]

Total assets sitting on the sidelines in DAFs have almost doubled in 5 years. We need common-sense reforms because our communities are stronger when we use these assets to invest in charitable infrastructure today, rather than waiting tomorrow. https://t.co/N0OSjYWXPF

Fight Erupts Over Whether Donor-Advised Fund Bill Would Help or Hurt Community Foundations https://t.co/ffWUY9WF29

[The Initiative to Accelerate Charitable Giving @accelgiving]

The failure to regulate DAFs and private foundations has cost #charities over $300 billion in foregone donations in 5 years alone, according to a novel report from @raymadoff & @JamesAndreoni. #FactFriday https://t.co/49McXENSoF

[The Initiative to Accelerate Charitable Giving @accelgiving]

In 2020 – a year of immense need – new DAF data shows that approximately 82% of assets available for distribution remained in DAFs and were not distributed to charities. Now is the time to restore charitable tax benefits with benefits to charities. https://t.co/a1esLONyPb
