1/5: I heard Andy B tried an ex order on "conversion therapy" and checked if he jumped the shark or was more bark than bite. Both. Or his proofreader forgot to edit out the unconstitutional part in one spot but fixed in another. One thing is clear: A Governor is not a dictator.
4/5: I must give credit where he says, "All agencies that are not subject to the supervision of the Governor are encouraged to explore all options..." So he is using state time and resources to publish personal interest press releases under the banner of orders.

Sens. @FunkeShelley, @Senate7Ky and @tichenor4ky have released the following statement in light of this morning's troubling comment by @GovAndyBeshear on @MSNBC:
1/3 Celebrating today with my annual re-read of the Declaration of Independence. Here is this year's nugget phrase:
"for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance"
Here is the context:
"He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance....
2/3 "He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance."
Who knew open records issues or killing good bills were top examples of tyranny?
Section 148 of the Kentucky Constitution requires all employers to allow 4 hours of voting leave. SB 172 would actually make sure this happens by implementing penalties for those employers who violate your constitutional right to vote.
The big question right now is, do we protect the public's right to use a non-trackable, non-programmable currency, or do we let businesses start cutting off customers because they have decided they want to pay into credit card fee world?
SB130, my bill to prevent Digital Discrimination is having a hearing @ noon in the Sen. State & Local Gov. Com. 26 co-sponsors w/ Sen. Deneen recently being added. If it becomes law you would not have to have smart phones, computers, or CR cards, to interact with public services
Coming out of the senate chamber yesterday, I missed a step on the marble stairs and broke my ankle. Thanks to many senators, security, staff, and my husband who helped every step (or hop). Heading back now to finish a few constituent bills to meet today’s filing deadline.
Attention Henry County here are the details on the community town hall THIS Saturday the 24th. Hope to see many people there and am looking forward to your questions.

Here's a catch-up on a variety of what I am into so far this session.
Sen. Southworth starts legislative session at forefront of SB 80, sponsors 25 bills pmg-ky1.com/henry_county_loc… @Senate7Ky
This summer I worked through our statutes to eliminate violations of the federal privacy act. Years ago for some reason we started using SSNs for anything and everything, which is actually not legal, and we now know that's a recipe for identity theft. apps.legislature.ky.gov/reco…
SB 156 is my Micro-Poultry Farm bill. If this became law, local farmers could slaughter their own chickens free of the permit and processing requirements of the big chicken farms. apps.legislature.ky.gov/reco…
