Today, AGs in Ky, TN, WV, VA, IN & OH filed a complaint opposing Pres. Biden's "outrageous" Title IX change that protects 'gender identity.' Ky AG Coleman: new rule "would rip away" protections for women, & says he's opposing it bec. it's his "duty to protect my daughters"
The GOP-dominated KY legislature in the final hours of this session gave @RCforAG funding to “push back” against @EPA rules, some centered around curbing greenhouse gas emissions. Not everyone thinks it’s a good use of taxpayer dollars, though. kentuckylantern.com/2024/04/29/ken… @KYLantern

Donald Trump is coming to Lexington. It'll cost you at least $25k to attend a Craft-hosted dinner event, with $5k of that going toward a group that's spent tens of millions footing Trump's legal bills. kentucky.com/news/politics-…
A tough but necessary & very well-reported read from @AcquistoA on how one lawmaker navigated KY's abortion law. kentucky.com/news/politics-…
Set aside some time to read the latest story from @AcquistoA, who spoke with Rep. Lindsey Burke about her journey toward motherhood, including the painful decision to end a nonviable pregnancy to save her other baby. kentucky.com/news/politics-…
Almost a year after Rep. Lindsey Burke gave birth to twins — one dead, the other alive — she walked out of a legislative committee meeting. She was protesting a bill she said shamed the choice to end a nonviable pregnancy — a choice she herself had made. kentucky.com/news/politics-…
Beshear, just now in his weekly presser, said he signed Momnibus into law, calls it a "great" bill. He mentioned what Dems called anti-abortion policy that didn't make the final cut. "All the concerning stuff was pushed out at the end, isn't that great," he said.

🚨 @GovAndyBeshear has signed SB 74 into law. This is the bill that absorbed Momnibus. This means pregnancy will be a qualifying life event for special insurance enrollment in Kentucky starting next year, among other things.
New: Daniel Cameron is back in Kentucky politics. He recently created a PAC ("All 120 PAC") to help in-state Republican candidates, potentially signaling an interest in running for something again. kentucky.com/news/politics-…
“Momnibus” bill to lower maternal mortality rates gets revived on last day of Kentucky legislative session - and without controversial anti-abortion amendment shorturl.at/luLWX ^JC
"I know some people (don’t) like to report this but I think this caucus has has been very good about being race neutral," said KY Senate President Robert Stivers. "What we seek, & what some people don’t want to portray us as, is ‘treat everybody fairly.'" kentucky.com/news/politics-…
Perhaps my favorite quote quote from yesterday, courtesy of Sen. Adrienne Southworth: “I’m not sure how we’ve lost track of the English language, but these rules have been written clear enough to me. Are we going to follow our rules or not?” @AcquistoA: kentucky.com/news/politics-…

Periodic Maine appreciation post to mark 1 year at the Bangor Daily News. Still feel like I don’t know what I’m doing like half the time, and still get tips from people who think I’m in Louisville, but everything is OK.
This is a must-read from @AcquistoA that you should spend some time with if you haven't already:
Thank you for your bravery, Rep. Burke. Sharing a painful story like this isn't easy. @KyDems are lucky to have such a powerful voice for women in the General Assembly. kentucky.com/news/politics-…
I am honestly speechless to be named reporter of the year by Texas Managing Editors. In a difficult year for media nationwide, it’s a privilege to be able to continue to do this work, one I don’t take lightly. texastribune.org/2024/04/20/tex…
@AcquistoA This story, like many great stories, made me think & feel through my own experience. I was an IVF twin up to 13 weeks. This stuff is not easy to talk about, and the story spurred conversations in my own family.
Great reporting (& visuals from @ryanhermens) in the H-L today on where Eastern Kentucky stands 60 years after Johnson declared his "War on Poverty.". kentucky.com/news/state/ken…
Powerful reporting by @AcquistoA.
Almost a year after Rep. Lindsey Burke gave birth to twins — one dead, the other alive — she walked out of a legislative committee meeting. She was protesting a bill she said shamed the choice to end a nonviable pregnancy — a choice she herself had made. kentucky.com/news/politics-…

"The shadows of the atmospheric wind rushed across the ground: the snakes, the snakes. The air sucked out of the world, we began to shiver. What if Rosa’s grandma was right, what if we shouldn’t be here?" @stopitkatie i'm mad (again) at how good this is atmos.earth/gods-omens-and…
I went to Kentucky for the eclipse and got my bones read and thought about time and politics and tourism and corniness and religion, and then the sun passed behind the moon and like so many before me it nearly made me lose my mind. atmos.earth/gods-omens-and…
It’s true
@janetpattonhl The Herald-Leader has distinguished itself in exposing the lie on which HB 509 is premised. Cheves' article was the highlight of the newspaper's coverage on the darkness that threatens to descend on Kentucky government in the broader legal & historical context. @BGPolitics
