Everyday costs are higher than a year ago, and this administration is making it worse by inflaming global chaos. We all want to stop drug trafficking, but Americans deserve real solutions, not reckless airstrikes. Before any offensive action, Congress must vote. The Constitution demands it.

Governor Beshear announced that the Trump administration has accepted Kentucky’s Rural Health Transformation Plan in full. This five-year federal investment will help offset recent cuts and strengthen access to health care in rural parts of our state.

In Kentucky, primaries are closed. That means you can only vote in the primary for the party you’re registered with. If you want a voice in Democratic primaries & a say in where our state goes next, register as a Democrat by 12/31. Your vote matters. https://vrsws.sos.ky.gov/ovrweb/

Wow, a 15 year high on bankruptcies is happening the year we put on these stupid GOP/Trump tariffs…go figure.

I’m saddened to hear of the passing of Tatum Dale. Tatum was clearly loved and deeply respected and her absence will be felt by many. I’m holding her family, friends, and colleagues in my thoughts and prayers, and sending strength to everyone across Kentucky grieving this tragic loss.

This Christmas Eve, I’m spending time with the people I love and feeling especially thankful. Thankful for the love, kindness, and community that make Kentucky such a special place. May your night be filled with warmth, hope, and a little extra kindness. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas Eve.

This administration keeps saying everything is great. The headlines and our bank accounts tell a different story.

Of course we all would love a little extra money around the holidays but here's the truth about Trump's "warrior dividend."

When will the president realize his lies don’t lower our bills?

Last summer, Republicans in Congress including four Kentucky House members and one Kentucky senator voted to cut investment in next generation EV technology.

The result is 1,600 Kentucky jobs lost. That’s mortgages, car payments, and families left in limbo a week before Christmas.

The Glendale facility will now support the energy storage demands of data centers, utilities, and large-scale industrial and commercial customers, Ford said.

During the holiday season, as families and friends come together to honor tradition and find comfort in fellowship, the increased cost of day-to-day living — groceries, utilities and health care — is front and center on everyone’s minds.
 
Read my op-ed here.
Trump's tariffs tax the cheer out of Kentucky's holidays | Opinion
Kentuckians shouldn’t have to pay more for groceries, healthcare and holiday celebrations because Trump is making dumb decisions.

Happy Hanukkah to all who are celebrating. May this Festival of Lights bring hope & peace.
 
My heart is with the Jewish community after the horrific antisemitic attack in Australia. We mourn the lives lost, pray for the injured, and honor the bravery of those whose heroic actions helped save lives.

Republican candidates are powered by big money and they’re trying to buy this Senate seat. This race isn’t about who has the biggest checks. It’s about people coming together to stand up for Kentucky. Now is the moment to show we’re competitive.

Caught up with Chris Hartman over coffee this week. Chris is the director of the Fairness Campaign, Kentucky’s statewide LGBTQ advocacy organization. They’re doing important work in communities across the Commonwealth, advancing LGBTQ rights and helping build a more welcoming Kentucky for everyone.

Donald Trump says he wants to “crack down” on drug trafficking.

But he cut prevention and treatment programs that help people rebuild their lives, and he pardoned a convicted drug kingpin.

We need leaders who will actually fight the opioid crisis and invest in treatment, prevention, and recovery.

I just learned of the shooting at Kentucky State University today. One person lost their life, others were injured, and an entire campus community has been shaken. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families, and every KSU student and staff member processing this tragedy.

This year has reminded us just how much our communities need us, and how much we depend on one another.
 
On this #GivingTuesday, I hope you will join me in supporting the organizations that show up every day for families, veterans, and neighbors who are struggling.
