Korea!) and a returning Nato cover bipartisan signs of hope in Frankfort, a legal defense of one of KY’s few progressive policies, and how constituents are pressuring one of KY’s highest profile House GOP members - then we check in with Dustin Reinstedler, the president of Kentucky’s AFL-CIO, in advance of a seeming momentous Labor Day - we’ll hear about the state of labor, workers, and how we can fight against the billionaire takeover, of, well everything.
