The Kentucky Republican-backed betrayal bill will make healthcare harder to access for our neighbors. 6 of the 35 hospitals at risk are in our district.

This Republican attack on our community is heartless, and I'm going to continue fighting every day to stop these cruel cuts to healthcare.

My mom taught second grade. My dad worked in coal. They paid into systems their whole lives. Now, GOP leaders want to rip those systems away from people like them. Not on my watch. #SNAPcuts #MedicaidCrisis

Thank you, former State Representative Russ Meyer, for endorsing my campaign! His journey from Nicholasville mayor to state representative shows what dedicated public service looks like. Grateful for leaders like Russ who put Kentucky families first.

When you close a hospital in rural Kentucky, you don’t just cut careβ€”you kill jobs, shut down lifelines, and make families drive hours for emergencies. It’s cruel. I won’t let them get away with it. #ProtectRuralHealth #KY06

A $1B Eastern KY coal-to-solar project gets approval to start construction Developers anticipate employing 250 people during construction of a 210-megawatt facility on a 2,000-acre site across three counties.

This is a major win for my hometown.

It was KY coal miners who powered our nation through two world wars. We owe these communities so much, and I’m glad to see this long-term investment in their economic success. #KY06

On this Purple Heart Day, we pay tribute to those who sacrificed so much for our nation. Their courage exemplifies the very best of our country. I am forever grateful for their sacrifice.

Thank you, Teri Carter, for endorsing our campaign! From covering rural Kentucky's stories to advocating for teachers' rights, Teri has been a powerful voice for our communities. I'm grateful for her support.

The Voting Rights Act turns 60 today, but it's facing new threats from Republicans across America. In Congress, I'll fight to strengthen these protections, not weaken them. Democracy only works when everyone can participate.

I grew up in Hindman, KYβ€”coal country, where folks work hard and ask for little. Now those same families are at risk of losing their hospitals because Republicans in DC think healthcare is a luxury. It’s not. It’s a lifeline. #FromHindmanToFrankfort #MedicaidMatters

SNAP cuts could have big impact in Kentucky, including in its schools The passage of Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill" brings significant changes to SNAP at a time when food insecurity is already high in Kentucky.

When kids are hungry, they can’t learn.

When teachers are buying snacks instead of supplies, classrooms suffer.

Cutting SNAP hurts Kentucky’s kids and their schools. We need to invest in families, not punish them. #KY06

Thank you, former State Representative Chris Harris, for your endorsement! As a former coal miner and legislator who served Martin and Pike counties, Chris knows what it means to fight for working families.

Honored to have his support as we work to bring that same dedication to Congress.

What an honor to have former House Democratic Leader Derrick Graham's endorsement.

His 30 years of service, from teacher to legislative leader, exemplifies true public service. Thank you, Leader Graham.

The numbers are in: $3.4 TRILLION to the deficit and 10 MILLION Americans losing their health insurance.

If my Republican opponents care about helping working Kentuckians as much as they say, they should explain to #KY06 how this bill is in their best interests.

KY-06 candidate Cherlynn Stevenson slams massive cuts to KET and public radio Issues statement after recission vote in U.S. House

It’s about time Central Kentucky has a representative in DC who will always stand up for our rural communities β€” unlike my Republican opponents who would have blindly supported these cuts.

It's still so hard for me to believe that Washington Republicans would strip away access to healthcare and make medicine and food too expensive for people to afford.

So honored to receive former State Representative @pattiminter4ky.bsky.social’s endorsement! Patti built her career on the principle that everyone deserves opportunity and dignity.

Her record of bringing people together to solve problems is a model for the kind of leadership we need in Washington.

The best part of campaigning? Events like today's potluck in Georgetown where we sat around the table, shared a meal, and really listened to each other.

Thank you to everyone who came out and made it such a special afternoon. Scott County, you're amazing!

Federal agencies can resume mass layoffs, Supreme Court rules Many agencies across government are expected to swiftly implement workforce cuts.

Washington Republicans' massive layoffs will mean lower-quality care at the VA and longer wait times to access your Social Security benefits. This isn't about government efficiency. It's about cruelty.

Hard-working Kentuckians should not have to pay the price so Republicans can hand out tax breaks to billionaires.

Happy Fourth of July, Kentucky! Today we celebrate the ideals our founders fought for, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all.

From my family to yours, may this day be filled with celebration and reflection of the work we have ahead.

There’s nothing "beautiful" about ripping health coverage from hundreds of thousands of Kentuckians.

I’m running for Congress because #KY06 families can’t afford one more day of this chaos.

I am honored to have earned the endorsement from my friend, Angela Evans. She works tirelessly to ensure everyone has equal protection under the law.

We’re lucky to have her as our County Attorney, and I’m fortunate to have her support for our campaign. #KY06

God's Pantry feeds 280,000 Kentuckians. Now they're warning that SNAP cuts will bring more hungry families than they can handle.

Kids shouldn't go hungry because Republicans are putting billionaire tax breaks first.

I'm running to protect food assistance for Kentucky families.
