  • March 23, 2020 Via Email Governor Andy Beshear Lt. Governor
    March 23, 2020 Via email Governor Andy Beshear Lt. Governor Jacqueline Coleman The Honorable Robert Stivers The Honorable Morgan McGarvey The Honorable David Osborne The Honorable Joni Jenkins Dear Governor Beshear, Lt. Governor Coleman and Legislative Leaders: This letter is intended to provide additional recommendations urgently requested by Kentucky’s nonprofit sector as a follow up to the letter originally submitted via email on March 17 (see below). The original recommendations and these additions are critical to the nonprofit sector’s ability to weather this storm and continue to serve Kentucky’s most vulnerable during this crisis. Disruptions in state grants and contracts could trigger massive layoffs or even permanently shut down organizations providing health services, food assistance, emergency shelter, senior care, emergency child-care, mental health, substance use disorder treatment and other essential services in the Commonwealth. In addition to the original recommendations (see below), we recommend: • Special attention and funding are needed for the homeless population in Kentucky. Homeless individuals are not able to safely practice social distancing, wash their hands or take other recommended precautions to stay safe. They are also more likely to have underlying health conditions and a high volume of infection among this population will seriously stress our health system. Emergency funding to agencies that provide housing, healthcare and other services to homeless populations are needed, as well as creative responses to relieve existing shelters that do not have enough distance between beds to keep the virus from spreading. • We urge the Commonwealth to maintain customary payments to nonprofits that have current grants and contracts.

  • VOTE Tuesday, Nov. 6
    VOTE Tuesday, Nov. 6 This year C-FAIR, the political action committee (PAC) of the Fairness Campaign, proudly endorsed more than 90 candidates for state and local offices across Kentucky in the 2018 General Election. We are proud to share them with you in this newsletter, which includes a full list of endorsed candidates and brief endorsement narratives in a few select races. You might be wondering why you do not see endorsements in the many important races for Congress across Kentucky, but as a state PAC, C-FAIR only endorses candidates for state and local office, not federal office. These endorsements represent hundreds of volunteer hours performed by C-FAIR Board Members and community volunteers, who interviewed a record number of candidates for our PAC—more than 120 in total! All candidates in races being considered by C-FAIR were mailed an instruction letter to their address filed with the Kentucky Secretary of State or County Clerk. Those letters provided a link to an online candidate survey. Candidates who completed the survey, and whose answers were viewed favorably by the C-FAIR Board of Directors, were invited to an interview with a team of C-FAIR Board Members and supporters, who interviewed each candidate in a particular race in person General Election ‘18 or by phone. Following the interview the teams made recommendations of endorsement to the C-FAIR Board of Directors, which issues final endorsement decisions. Page 2 C-FAIR Endorsements Sometimes there are many Fairness-supportive candidates in a single race. While it is difficult, the C-FAIR Board of Directors endeavors to choose one candidate for endorsement in each Page 4 race.
