So, How WAS that First Rodeo w/Reps. Burke and Swann #ColonelsOfTruth

Aaron, Doug and Kimberly discuss Kentucky political news - with Doug running down the final bills passed in the final days of the #KYGA23, and Aaron pointing out the harsh responses of GOP majorities in KY and TN when their totalitarianism is challenged. Then we are excited to bring on Representative Lindsey Burke and Representative Lamin Swann, who share their views of their first session in Frankfort, the highs and lows, and Rep. Burke reminds Aaron what's going on with the legal fight over reproductive justice in Kentucky.
