Democrats. Republicans. Independents. This is bigger than party. It’s about family. I want life to be easier for you. I want you to have quality health care. I want your family and your community to have every opportunity to thrive. I’m running for Senate to fight for you.

Fancy Farm is so much more than stump speeches and political trash talking. It’s a time for us all to come together. It was an honor to be on that stage, and an even greater privilege to talk to Kentuckians from all backgrounds about our shared hopes for the future. Grateful, and fired up.

If you have overlooked Kentucky, look again. Mitch isn’t running. Andy Barr is a spineless fraud no one likes. Meanwhile, we have built coalitions from the Hood to the Holler. Lock arms with us. We’re flipping this Senate seat.

Kentuckians are demanding answers about Mitch McConnell. I’ve led the call for transparency. My opponent, Andy Barr, has cowardly remained silent. Kentucky needs leadership, not a politician who would rather duck his head and turn his back on us.

The secrecy and dishonesty continuing to be fueled by Mitch McConnell and his team is offensive and wrong. There is nothing normal about this, and it strikes at the very chords that cause so many Americans to distrust politics.

There is so much I can say about my mom. She has given me more than I could ever repay. The love and care she provides. The sacrifices she has made. I am beyond grateful and oh so proud to be her son.

Today, Mitch McConnell remains in the hospital. We called for transparency, and after a month, we finally “heard” from McConnell. And even now, we still don’t know if he will return to the Senate. Kentucky deserves honesty. We deserve real leadership.

Kentuckians are hurting, and so tired of this broken status quo. Let’s stand together, deliver real change with policies like Medicare for All, and clean up the mess in Washington.

Kentucky isn’t just ready for change, we’re bringing it. From Fort Thomas to the Four Rivers, we are standing strong and marching together. We celebrate independence by continuing to fight for it. Let’s keep going.

Today marks 250 years since the Declaration of Independence was adopted. We’ve made great progress, but enormous challenges remain and there is so much work to be done. But WE THE PEOPLE will get there. Together. Where WE go from here is up to US.
