Madison County Chapter meeting with new state representative
In November the Madison County KFTC Chapter met with one of their newly elected State Representatives. Chapter members gave an overview of KFTCs legislative agenda to State Representative-elect Rita Smart, who represents Richmond and parts of Berea. A small group of chapter members met with Ms. Smart, and her opponent, over the summer to provide a candidate issue briefing. The chapter was excited to have a larger group of members met with Ms. Smart and begin developing a working relationship with their state representative. During the meeting, Ms. Smart said that KFTC has been the only group to provide her with information so far and that she “got pretty excited” listening to our legislative agenda. She agreed to go on a mountain-witness tour out in Eastern Kentucky with KFTC and to also meet with KFTC anytime we are in Frankfort. Chapter members are looking forward to meeting with her again during the state legislative session.
