Blog: Quoting Hal Rogers

Statement

"Kentucky is a small state, as they go. Kentucky is also a very poor state, as they go and we need all the help we can get out of the federal government. " said Hal Rogers reported the Middlesboro Daily News.

Yes, most of the people are poor here after Hal Rogers and Mitch McConnell have been in office since 1981. Why do poor people continue to elect Republicans like Hal Rogers and Mitch McConnell? I can't figure it out. What has the Republican Party done for poor people lately? They tried to shut down food stamps (SNAP) but the Democrats put a stop to that, and the Republicans had to settle for cutting food stamp benefits. Education benefits and Pell Grants have been cut. Cutbacks have been in all welfare related programs since we have had Republican majorities. Next time Elect More Democrats.
