This week Aaron, Martina and Willie bring you a few important Kentucky political stories from the legislature - book banning, slow walking the CROWN Act, Ryan Quarles performative "support" for medical marijuana - then we take a quick look at how Kentucky is being represented in DC (spoiler - horribly), and we have a great interview with Keith Elston, the founder of the Kentucky Youth Law Project about his important work on behalf of LGBTQ kids in Kentucky, and how HB 470 (the anti-trans omnibus bill) will impact their lives and care -- Then we close with an important call to action.
