In Paducah, I had a mom tell me her young kids learned about gender reassignment surgery - not at school or from library books - but from Daniel Cameron’s TV ads. Our families, our schools, and our commonwealth deserve better than dishonesty and division.

“School choice” is a scam that really means school vouchers. School vouchers siphon off public tax dollars to unaccountable private schools. When public dollars go to unaccountable private schools, rural schools pay the price. 1/2

If Matt Bevin's pension plan was so great, why did he hide it in a sewer bill and break the law just to pass it? As I said in last night's debate, we owe it to our workers to keep the promise we made to them and generate new revenue without placing the burden on working families.

This is what bravery looks like. In Kentucky, we find ourselves in an extreme place where rapists have more rights than survivors. And now politicians like Daniel Cameron are trying to hide that to get elected. That’s the opposite of bravery.
