Truth to Power | Morgan McGarvey & Michael Washburn | Ohio River Confluence | 10-31-25
This week on Truth to Power, we bring you a vital community conversation with Louisville's U.S. Representative, Morgan McGarvey (D-KY-03) about The Ohio River Restoration Program Act. Representative McGarvey is one of the co-chairs of the Ohio River Basin Congressional Caucus and is dedicated to Ohio River Basin Restoration through bi-partisan collaboration. In this session, Rep. McGarvey discussed the Ohio River Restoration Program Act with Michael Washburn, Executive Director of the Kentucky Waterways alliance. They discuss shared goals and challenges, and the next steps for this process, before opening the floor for Q&A.
This conversation took place on October 18, 2025 at the Ohio River Confluence (https://www.ohioriverway.org/2025-ohio-river-basin-confluence). For the first time, the Ohio River Basin Alliance, Kentucky Waterways Alliance, and the Ohio River Way held a special joint summit in place of their individual annual conferences. This event was co-hosted by the University of Louisville Christina Lee Brown Envirome Institute, and Thomas More University. The Ohio River Basin Confluence Summit took place October 16-18, 2025, at the Kentucky International Convention Center in Louisville. The Summit brought together advocates, professionals, and water leaders of all kinds to learn, plan, and build a diverse identity across our important river basin.
On Truth to Power each week, we gather people from around the community to discuss the state of the world, the nation, the state, and the city! It's a community conversation like you won't hear anywhere else!
Truth to Power airs every Friday at 9pm, Saturday at 11am, and Sunday at 4pm on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at https://forwardradio.org
