the duke of kentucky serves as the heart of america's inland waterways system and western kentucky is also home to major civil works program like the kentucky lock. this legislation is good news for communities throughout the commun wealth. the freedom to fish act will help safeguard a important part of kentucky's cultural heritage. generations of kentuckians have fished the tail waters of the wolf creek damn. i remember my dad and his friend taking me there. they were experienced fishermen. the last thing they needed was advice from federal bureaucrats on where to cast their lines. but in 2012, in a typical display of obama overreach, the army corps threatened to restrict being a is he is to these cherished waters. i don't know anyone in kentucky who thought it was a good idea. the farmers didn't. the anglers didn't. the area businesses relying on fishing tourism didn't. the kentucky department of fish and wildlife certainly didn't. so i worked with community leaders like my friend, judge wayne white, and my colleagues in kentucky and tennessee congressional delegations to put a stop

from day one as former senator from kentucky john brown was elected, the kentucky historical society's first president. to further illustrate this connection, you should know that khs selected as its second president senator john rowland. today it's my privilege to introduce another history- minded united states senator from kentucky, the honorable mitch mcconnell. he served as the united states senate majority leader. he's only the second kentuckyen to hold this post. first elected in 1984, leader mcconnell is also kentucky's longest serving state senator. i have to believe, senator, that your keen interest in history and its relevance has been a key to your ability to work over the years with numerous administrations representing a range of political perspectives. i would like to touch on one final connection between the kentucky historical society and senator mcconnell. and that is our shared commitment to history, to civics education, and to the future. at khs, we are focused on educating and engaging the public through kentucky history in order to confront the challenges of the fu

. -- earmark in kentucky. during the administration of ulysses s. grant, which was plagued by corruption, blackburn played a key role in discovering financial wrongdoing which led to the impeachment and the resignation of the secretary of war. all told, blackburn served 10 years in the house. before moving onto the senate, in 1885 where he served until 1897 and from 1901 to 1907. due to his success in the house, and his larger-than-life personality, blackburn had already become a national figure by the time he reached the senate. in 1885, he had an alaskan mountain peak named after him. 11 years later, he was among the leading candidates for his party's presidential nomination. as noted earlier, one of the reasons that parties in the senate meet in a caucus is to develop a strategy for achieving their goals. sometimes, senators of the same party will unanimously agree on a path forward. but what if all the senators in the caucus do not agree on a course of action? that, of course, never happens.

the gentleman from kentucky is recognized. mr. massie: i'd like to point out this amendment is a bipartisan amendment. this has been a very partisan debate over a lot of these amendments over the farm bill, and i think it's time we have something that's supported by both sides of the aisle. this amendment is -- it's modeled after a stand-alone bill that has over a dozen co-sponsors from both sides of the aisle. the sponsors of this amendment are congressman polis and congressman rohrabacher in addition to myself. it's very simple. if you understand federalism you can understand this bill. it says that if two states have legalized the sale of unpasturized milk then no federal department, agency, or court may take any action to prohibit or restrict the interstate traffic of milk or milk products between those two states. and there are 28 states that have legalized the sale of raw milk. look, with the debt of over $21 trillion, the federal government doesn't have the time, the money, or the resources to chase down and prosecute peace

in this building people in kentucky heard the discussion. there are many historical moments making the perfect setting for the event this afternoon. clifford berryman is one of the most famous political cartoonists in political history. is 1902 depiction of theodore roosevelt refusing to shoot a bear cub became so popular that the cartoon image ultimately spawned the teddy bear which was named in honor of our 26th president. berryman brings together the two central actors in today's speech. kentucky senator blackman and berkeley. over my shoulder as i just said is senator blackburn. he was quite a character in his day. berryman commissioned a portrait of blackman. barkley was brought in. this afternoon's speech will conclude a series of talks about past prominent senators from our state. we've been blessed with a rich heritage. the theme i would like to discuss today is the evolution of senate leadership and kentucky's role in that development particularly as it involves senators blackburn and berkeley. i would like to thank doctor gerald ga

they endorsed the jefferson kentucky results. in 1798 jefferson argued in favor of the rights of the states. the supreme court had not yet declared the principal that we get to determine constitutionality. so jefferson and madison said they got to be the ones to do this. that's exactly what calhoun was claiming for south carolina. so some of the toasts are in favor of the kentucky resolution. the climax of the night comes when the president of the united states, andrew jackson, is going to speak. there are scheduled and unscheduled toasts. jackson attended on this night. he made it very clear that he would not let the union go out. so when jackson stands up for the unscheduled toast, he's by this time showing his age and not in good health. he never was a good public speaker. he was no match for henry clay, john calhoun and daniel webster . he stands up in the hotel and everybody is absolutely silent to see what andrew jackson is going to say. he holds up his glass and stares at john calhoun and says our federal union, it must be

later today, i will be meeting with members of an industry with deep roots in my home state of kentucky, our bourbon and spirits distillers. judging by recent headlines, we'll have plenty of good news to discuss. after eight years of democrat policies enriching big cities and leaving small businesses behind, republican policies are helping workers and job creators thrive all across our country. from louisville to kansas city to portland, our growing craft distilling industry is a perfect example. they're enjoying a pro-growth provision in the historic tax reform republicans passed last year which lowered excise taxes on beer, wine, and spirits, and modernized the regulatory policy affecting each. interestingly enough, the craft beverage modernization and tax reform act even began as a bipartisan effort with 56 cosponsors here in the senate led by senators blunt, wyden, and portman. of course, not a single democrat showed up when it was time to vote on tax reform, but republicans accomplished it anyway, and now "the new york times" can publish stories about how the measure is making a bi

brutus clay, a prominent kentucky politician. the name clay, you maybe immediately think of henry clay. they were distant cousins. he had a brother named cascius. he was an outspoken abolitionist at the time. brutus was a member of the kentucky state house when the war broke out and was a lyle unionist when the civil war came. in his mind, the civil war was about saving the united states from ruin. brutus clay was a slave owner. but he did like another kentuckians, he believed slavery was best protected within the union. and he felt that this was so obvious and self efdent that he couldn't even imagine why some kentuckians would consider suseeded or wanting their state to succeed. and he especially didn't get it when his own son, 20 year old zeke, began expressing sentiments. by 1860, zeke, he had begun attending pro-secession rallies in kentucky. and in time, he too despite being the son of his unionist father, began talking like a die-hard southern sympathizer. what this did is it left his stepmother, anne clay, with kind of a

this is not just a kentucky phenomenon. according to a new sawyer vai data from the national association of manufacturers, more than 93% of u.s. manufacturing firms have a positive outlook. 93% of u.s. manufacturing firms have a positive outlook. already 77% of manufacturers are reporting hiring new workers and 86% say they're investing in plants and equipment. many american communities revolved around these manufacturing facilities. sadly, during the obama years, they were among the most likely to be left behind by the so-called recovery. but now that's changing. today manufacturing wages are growing at their fastest pace in 17 years. these are just a few signs of our nation's economic comeback under republicans' pro growth, pro opportunity agenda. remember, not one of our democratic colleagues voted with us to set this train in motion. not one. they voted against culting red tape for american -- cutting red tape for american manufacturers. they voted against the tax reforms that are growing paychecks and helping create ne

go to kentucky. example, in army estimated that it effectively cheated kentucky out of $250,000. now there are four more years of cheating kentucky and the american people out of their royalties. that number is probably much larger now than 2014 the the 25 year. we have no indication that the army has paid any of these royalties. nd until we deal with that issue that they are not paying royalties for the gas that the american people and the people of kentucky own, we should not be letting them off the hook. i would ask the sponsor of the amendment to look closely at this issue and what his home state stands to loose because of it and then to -- lose because of it and then to reconsider again whether or not he want this is amendment to be adopted. i reserve the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman reserves. the gentleman from kentucky is recognized. mr. guthrie: i have no further speakers and prepared to close. the chair: prepared to close. the gentleman from kentucky prepared -- and the gentl

i've heard from kentucky veterans exactly what this bill will mean for them. one wrote, kentucky disabled veterans greatly appreciate that congress has finally -- is finally taking action to correct deficiencies in the caregiver program. another explained that the legislation, quote, strikes the right balance to make sure we strengthen the v.a. system and provide veterans with the best care possible. so i want to congratulate my friend chairman isakson once more on this achievement. i'm proud the senate stepped up to the plate and showed america's veterans that on our watch, a promise made is a promise kept. what's more, we already confirmed two executive branch nominees and will process two more before the end of the week. first up is jelena mcwilliams, president trump's well qualified pick to chair the fdic board of directors. this week we've also seen an impressive proposal to reform the way congress handles workplace claims, especially claims of harassment. the democratic leader and i strongly support this proposal as do our colleague senator blunt and sen

kentucky is seeing the benefits of tax reform. the opportunity of people to move into prosperity, expand opportunity. and according to the bureau of labor statistics in april, unemployment was at 3.% across the country -- 3.9% across the country. the bureau of labor statistics also reported that 164,000 jobs were added across the country in april. raising the total since our tax reform bill was signed into law to nearly $800 -- 800,000 people. businesses are confident in our economy because of tax reform. most businesses are telling me that they are looking for workers, looking for people to have the opportunity to move forward and one of the great reasons that we are trying to do some of the policies that was talked about during the last hour is that we want to see people have the opportunity to work. to go from poverty to prosperity. from dependence to independence. we want people to have the opportunity to move forward in a growing economy -- and a growing economy will allow that to do so. these people are needed to be in the w

i recently heard from one kentucky navy veteran who lives 36 miles from the nearest v.a. provider. he served aboard an aircraft carrier, the u.s.s. forestal. and sustained a hand injury that still requires regular care. under current law, because he lives 36 miles and not 41 miles from the facility, he can't receive covered treatment from a nearby provider who's right in his own community. he has to make the round trip several times a year to receive care. i know virtually all of my colleagues have heard stories just like that one. they made it clear congress' work was far from finished, so chairman isakson and his veterans' affairs committee colleagues took the lead developing this new legislation which borrows elements from 15 different senate-introduced bills. the victories it contains are numerous. the v.a. mission act removes those arbitrary time and distance requirements that limit eligibility for outside care. it replaces those one-size-fits-all policies with a conversation between veterans and their own doctors about what works best. this will empower more veterans to acces

a member of the kentucky state house -- brutus was a member of the kentucky state house. the civil war was about saving the united states from ruin. owner.clay was a slave he owned 100 men, women, and children. he believed slavery was best protected in the union. he felt this was so obvious and self evidence that he couldn't even imagine why some kentuckians would consider -- orng or watering wanting their state to secede. son beganwn expressing some secessionist 1860's he had begun attending pro-secession rallies. in time he to, despite being the son of the unionist father, began talking like a diehard sympathizer. a dilemma on her hands, we might say. it was and who tended to be home toh zeke, watching over metric matters while brutus was away at the state capital. the first one to figure out that father and son may seem to be heading down these divergent paths. what should she do? should she tell brutus what is going on? that would undoubtedly infuriate him. she wanted to avoid that as much as she could. she even believed to zeke in the first place. she knew zeke was a

henry clay is from kentucky. kentucky was considered the west at the time. so we've got this regional arrangement among the three. and because, i said, these threesomes are kind of unstable. one of the striking parts of the story is the alliances, the shifting alliances among the three. because at any given time two are lined up against the other and which two it is depend on the time, depends on the issue. at the same time, each one is ambitious. each one, well, each one would love to be president. now, this is kind of an interesting aspect of the story, because, as i said, these guys, the three of them were more influence than all but a couple or three presidents of the united states. but there is something about ambition that says, it's great to be one of, well, so there by 1850 there were 60 senators. so it's great to be one of 60. but to be one of one, to be president of the united states, even if the presidency wasn't as big a deal as it would become, nonetheless, it was tempting. all three of them are trying to figure out how can i become president? p
