Gov. Matt Bevin's Statement Regarding Attorney General Beshear's Refusal to Defend Kentucky Law

Statement

Date: Jan. 10, 2017
Location: Frankfort, KY

Below is Gov. Matt Bevin's statement regarding Attorney General Andy Beshear's refusal to defend Kentucky law:

"Attorney General Andy Beshear is once again refusing to do his job. Even though he is obligated by law to do so, AG Beshear refuses to defend the 20-week abortion ban, a bill that won the support of nearly 80 percent of the General Assembly, including 21 Democrats. AG Beshear would rather pander to his liberal, pro-abortion base than defend the law of Kentucky. I will, therefore, continue doing it for him by defending these pro-life bills. The citizens of Kentucky demand and deserve no less."
