They're Baaaaaaaaack w/Sen. Reggie Thomas #ColonelsOfTruth

Aaron, Martina and a late-arriving Kimberly break down a few key Kentucky political news items from the weak that was. For Black History Month ProKY highlights another amazing Kentuckian, civil rights activist Dr. William Turner. Then the team is joined by State Senator Reggie Thomas who fills them in on the events of the day in the Senate (between aisles at Meijier). Unfortunately, it's not great news for those who want to fund a more compassionate commonwealth. We end with a chance for a positive, proactive effort to show #KYGA23 how much we LOVE democracy in our Call to Action!
