Last week, a member of Team Booker went to Twitter to find out what’s pissing Kentuckians off, and what you want Charles to take action on. Here’s some of the answers you gave:
“We’re 45th in education. Why?! WHY?! That’s it. That’s my biggest peeve.”
“Something that is more easily changed on a local level - good internet. We are DESPERATE out here.
But also, healthcare, childcare, food inflation, climate crisis, all of the above.”
“I have two gripes in two words, McConnell / Paul.”
“We need to be as bold as the GOP. Stack the court, blow up the filibuster, make DC and PR states, codify voting protections. Then go for EVERYTHING else. They would. They are.”
“Abortion abortion abortion. My daughter and your daughters and 10000s of others have fewer rights than I did. Make it a priority (I know you will).”
“I'm in Western Kentucky, there is a shortage of affordable housing and childcare.”
“Rand Paul!!”
We’re so grateful for everyone who shared what they want to change in our Commonwealth.
Unlike Rand Paul, Charles Booker is listening and he’s ready to fight for all Kentuckians, from the Hood to the Holler. But it’s up to us to make sure he can beat Rand Paul and usher in the era of change we need in the Commonwealth. We know that we can win by lifting up the voices that get ignored and turning out voters who have felt left behind.
Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell have become wealthy exploiting partisan divides, while our state is one of the poorest in the country.
Enough is enough. We deserve life. We deserve freedom. We deserve prosperity. We will win this fight.
Together, we’ll bring change to the Commonwealth.
