Our twins were born 14 weeks early, weighing less than 2lbs each. We had to fight our insurance company to cover special formula. Then in Frankfort, I passed a law forcing insurance companies to cover this life-saving care for all KY kids. Health care is a right, not a privilege.

KY Republicans want Louisville's Mayoral races to be nonpartisan because their candidates have no chance otherwise. At the same time, they're arguing nonpartisan judges in conservative areas should be partisan... I wish the hypocrisy of these power-grabs was stunning.

Speaking of impeachment, have you heard the House Republicans created an impeachment committee for @GovAndyBeshear ? They did it because four citizens sent a petition, one of whom organized the rally where the Governor was hung in effigy. This could go off the rails.

49 years ago today, SCOTUS ruled that our constitution protects a woman’s right to control her own body. I will be a vote in Congress to codify Roe to protect that vital right.

I joined @MomsDemand in Chickasaw Park today to discuss how we can end gun violence once and for all. No parent should ever have to bury their child. No parent should have to fear taking their kids to school, or to the park, or to the movie theater. Enough is enough.

Abortion bans were just the beginning. Republicans won’t stop until they’ve legislated women’s rights away. Kentuckians: our election is just 51 days away. Let’s keep extremist views like these out of office this November.

Kentucky AG Daniel Cameron is under fire for signaling on an anti-abortion survey he would restrict access to contraception if he could.
