I had an amazing time in Hardin County at their democratic women's club fall picnic on Monday. It was a great event with some amazing speakers like @colmonelridge and our next US Senator @colpamstevenson. #Compton4congress2026

Guess what we have now! That's right! We now have campaign signs. We are starting to sell signs for the campaign for $10. Lets flood this district with them and let Guthrie know he will be voted out in 2026. #Compton4congress2026

Rep. Brett Guthrie has raised over $13M this yearβ€”17% from PACs, special interests & big donors.

William Compton? He signed our Candidate Integrity Pledge and committed to serving people over profit. Let’s elect leaders who serve us, not their donors.

I just gave to William Compton! Hello everyone, Kentuckians deserve a leader who will fight to make things better for them. That time is now! The max donation someone can donate is $3,300, but donations of just $5, $1...

Saturday, Americans marched for #NoKingsDayβ€”to reject extremism and say this country belongs to us, not billionaires or political dynasties.

Now it’s our turn in KY-02. Our end-of-quarter deadline is days away. Help us fight back.πŸ‘‡

I had an amazing time at Glasgow Pride! It is time to have someone to represent the entire community, not just corporate donors. #Compton4congress2026

Press Release over Bill

For immediate release:

I am challenging Brett Guthrie to a public forum town hall regarding H.R. 1. If Congressman Guthrie believes this bill helps his constituents in the 2nd Congressional District, he should be willing to defend itβ€”in front of the very people whose lives it will change.

Over the past week, I have been out and about speaking to voters, supporting candidates like Col. Pamela Stevenson for US Senate, and fighting against the Reverse Robin Hood Budget bill Guthrie had a hand in crafting.

It is time we have a leader who will fight back every day. I am that leader.

We are down to 1 more day. Can you help us hold Guthrie accountable for his vote on the budget bill?

Republicans said their β€œOne Big Beautiful Bill” would help working families. In KY, the top 1% saw millions. Most of us? Less than $1,000. That’s not relief β€” that’s a ripoff. #KY02 #FairTaxPolicy

I make a commitment to the people of Kentucky that I will not take corporate or lobbyist donations. I will not put profit over Kentuckians.

I am the people's candidate for Kentucky's 2nd District. I stand with our low-income and working class Kentuckians because I *am* one.

Brett "Profit Over People" Guthrie voted to get richer, voted to give tax breaks to himself and other Trump cronies over the needs of Kentuckians. Congressman Brett Guthrie has prioritized evil over good. He doesn't care about us.

Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill is rooted in profit over people, making the rich richer while the poor and working class get left in the dust.

The choice could not be clearer here in KY-02. In 2026, let's vote for the candidate who will move Kentucky forward. #Compton4congress2026

In my race, I'm the only candidate that has all 3 of these:

1) Consistently shows up and listens to the people.

2) Lives in the district (Yes, 1 candidate doesn't even live in the district)

3) Has a proven record of voting with & for the working people as an elected official.

I completely agree. Brett Guthrie should have to look into the face of every single one of the 234,382 Kentuckians he voted to cut Medicaid from. #WhereIsGuthrie #FindGuthrie

Cutting life-saving care, and voting for those cuts, is not the way forward. Access to healthcare is our constitutional right! #ComptonCares #GetRidOfGuthrie #KentuckianforKentuckians

All of that will be reversed by Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill". Cuts and barriers to access for Medicaid in the Bill will directly hurt our communities. It will leave people in our communities vulnerable and without care.

Kentucky's opioid crisis is well-known. Medicaid is a huge resource for our communities for substance use treatment and support. Recent efforts have been effective in lowering overdose rates for the last couple of years.

Brett Guthrie is celebrating the fact that he just passed harmful Medicaid cuts that are going to hurt many Kentuckians in the 2nd District.

So I am on a mission to #GetRidOfGuthrie and I need your help!

This reverse Robin Hood bill steals from the poor and gives to the rich.

Call your senators and make sure they kill this bill. Oh, and don't forget in 2026 how Guthrie had a hand in crafting and voting for this bill. #Compton4Congress2026 #flipky02
