Joanie Prentice on this year’s General Assembly
We’re joined by bill-tracker-extraordinaire Joanie Prentice, to get her take on the good, the bad, and the ugly in this year’s session of the Kentucky General Assembly. Which bills are moving, and are they good or bad? And WHY are those particular bills moving? Join us to find out!
A tale of two housing bills
One bill based on compassion, the other based on money and power
Mitch, Trump, & their cronies just got taken to school
Just thinking about it makes my day!
The Lege is stuffing bills into each other to get them passed
Why not just write one multi-thousand-page bill and pass it?
So the Lege wants schools to teach civics – hahahaha!
Over 125 bills being rammed through by breaking the rules – and THIS Repub legislature wants to talk about CIVICS?!?
More bills than ever before – and more mule bills than ever before!
Why do OUR elected officials, who supposedly work for US, believe it is their right to do their work in secret?
A Republican senator without a party
Reasonable bills, reasoned stances. And yet, it appears this senator is on the outside of his own party.
Housing: Who has the privilege?
Are we going to punish the unhoused, or help them?
Not the usual first day of the General Assembly
Even as the leadership pushed through the same legislative shorcuts that had been called out by the League of Women Voters, numerous leges (including some Repubs!) spoke against these attacks on representative government.
What I’ve learned while knocking doors to save democracy
Guess what – doing political door-knocking can actually be fun! Joanie Prentice shares her experiences while out meeting with voters.
Calls to Action and Bill Updates for Monday, 3/27
A good working list from Joanie Prentice, who has been tracking the important bills this session. Act and share!
Who in Frankfort is taking care of our children?
Hint: It’s not the Republican majority.
Young people may move the C.R.O.W.N. act over the finish line
This may be the year Kentucky finally passes this bill – and some young people are leading the way.
