Kentucky, I have some major political news. Lt. Governor Jaqueline Coleman has endorsed our campaign for U.S. Senate!
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.
Questions continue to mount around Mitch McConnell. Kentuckians deserve transparency. And we all deserve a Senate that will stand for working people. 1/2
Family, @amymcgrath.bsky.social has endorsed our campaign for U.S. Senate! Over the years, we have stood across from each other as opponents. Today, I am proud to share that we are standing unified in the mission to replace Mitch McConnell and defeat his spawn in Andy Barr.
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.
The people of Kentucky deserve to know what’s going on with Mitch McConnell.
Working people aren’t looking for a handout. If anyone has received a handout, it’s Elon Musk. Mitch McConnell and Andy Barr have made sure the economy works for the 1% while giving working people the middle finger. That changes now. 1/2
My opponent Andy Barr has lost his morals and his mind. Yes, this CRAZY ad is real. Kentuckians are hurting, and we need a Senator who will stand up for working people, not fan the flames of fear and hate. Enough is enough. Let’s take this stand together, and flip this Senate seat.
This is major news. I am honored to have support from all of our State House and Senate Democratic leadership, alongside Democratic legislators in both chambers, as well as a powerful endorsement from former House Democratic Floor Leader Joni Jenkins. 1/3
The Supreme Court of the United States just ruled 5-4: if your ballot is postmarked by Election Day, IT COUNTS! A win for voters everywhere who play by the rules. From the hood to the holler, every American deserves to have their voice heard, and I’ll always fight to protect that right.
me when my sweaty opponent Andy Barr claims he is fighting for working families while slashing healthcare
Colonel Pam Stevenson is a trailblazer and a patriot. It’s been my honor to stand with her over the years, and I am deeply humbled to receive her full endorsement for U.S. Senate.
My little ones joined me as we celebrated the power of family and the pursuit of freedom. Together, as family, we will win.
Harrodsburg is one of those special places in Kentucky where the hood and the holler come together. It’s always a privilege to come out for their Juneteenth celebration, but this year set the bar.
My girls taught me a depth of love I didn’t know existed. They have brought the best out of me, and inspire me every single day. I am so very proud to be their dad. 1/2
It was an honor to be the Grand Marshall in the Juneteenth Parade hosted by the Kentucky Black Foundation and UAW. I am always proud to stand with these pillars of the community in our collective work.
My ancestors were enslaved in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Now, I am the nominee to become the fist Black person to represent Kentucky in the U.S. Senate. Chains can still be broken. Happy Juneteenth Weekend.
Kicked off this Juneteenth with family in Glasgow! Thank you to the Boys and Girls Club of Glasgow-Barren County for having me and for all you do to invest in the future of our children and our collective freedom! Together, we’ll keep fighting.
Unions are the heartbeat of progress in Kentucky, and I’m honored to have the support of the Kentucky State AFL-CIO. Organized labor doesn’t just stand with us at work. It powers our communities, supports our families, and fights for what’s right.
There is a lot I want to say about the slander and gross disrespect being levied against the remarkable former First Lady of the United States. However, the best response is Michelle Obama in her own words.
URGENT: The bipartisan Faster Labor Contracts Act has passed the House and is headed to the Senate for a vote. Call your senator at (202) 225-3121 and urge them to stand up for working people and vote YES on this bill. Workers deserve contracts. Not delays!
Happy Birthday, Breonna. Your light still shines. In your honor, we keep going.
Good morning. I am honored to announce Gov. Andy Beshear has endorsed our campaign for U.S. Senate! @andybeshearky.bsky.social has helped shine the light that politics rooted in kindness, faith, and humanity can win statewide in Kentucky. I am proud to have his support! Let’s win this race!
ENDORSEMENT ALERT!!! Congressman Morgan McGarvey is not only endorsing our campaign to replace Mitch McConnell, he is sounding the alarm that Kentucky is ready to win!
Mitch McConnell helped gut the Voting Rights Act. Andy Barr will gladly take what’s left and set it on fire. We are going to defeat the anti-democracy politics of McConnell and Barr, flip the Senate, and pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
I stand in solemn remembrance of all those who’ve made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. May we honor their sacrifices, cherish their memories, and rededicate ourselves to freedom and to ensuring that liberty and justice for all prevail.
YES, a Democrat can win in Kentucky. And for more on the subject, here’s my opponent, Andy Barr.
