Statement of Gov. Beshear on House Vote

"I applaud the action taken by the House today. After a thoughtful debate, the House stood up for Kentucky's signature industry and its 100,000 jobs and $4 billion economic impact. Everyone got to debate. Everyone had the chance to vote. That is the definition of leadership. An issue that is this important deserves the deliberation and vote of everyone. Now the question is will the Senate give everyone in its chamber the same privilege - an up-or-down vote on an issue of such importance to our Commonwealth?"
