they basically said that the kentucky board of education and the kentucky department of education isequire anybody to gender affirm and openly trans or known to be trans child in school. my amendment, which they refused to hear, would have said, okay, as the parent of a trans child, knowing, knowing the data, and they had the data in their hands to. the articles were either discussed with them personally or given to them. we have good data that's publish from this country that shows that the increase of gender affirming pronouns in a single content, single context, at home, at school, at work, decreases suicidal ideation by 29% and an actual suicidal action by 56%. so as a parent of a trans child, i should have the right. if they need a note from a health care provider, i can get it. to say, at school, my child needs to be appropriately confirmed. affirmed. no, this bill and a parents rights bill denies me, as a parent, the ability to do that. they took that anti early away. now, why did they do that? well, i can tell you why they did that. unfortunately, and i suspect, you know this

for governor of the great state of kentucky. mr. attorney general, great to see you tonight. >> thank you. how is it possible. >> laura: how is it possible that this president, who ran on this big unity and returning government to the, you know, normal course of business and so forth, he's telling black americans that white people still want to lynch them? >> it's absolutely ridiculous, laura. and this is a president that's trying to take us backward rather than judge people by the content of their character, they want to judge people based on the color their skin. and this president in many ways has surrendered his presidency to the woke policies of the far left. that's why i'm running for governor because i think the states are going to have to take the lead to push back against this nonsense coming from washington, dc. that's why i jumped in this governor's race and that's why i'm hoping to win so i can be a part of an alliance of governors, whether sara huckabee sanders in arkansas or desans in florida or glenn youngkin in v

i yield two minutes to the gentleman from kentucky, mr. barr. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from kentucky is recognized for two minutes mr. barr: i thank the chair. don't know if my colleagues on the other side of the aisle don't understand the existing law and what this resolution does and the department of labor's new rule is or whether they are trying to confuse the listeners and watchers here today. the truth is this is not material for the vast majority of americans. the studies show that most americans don't even know what e.s.g. is. and to the extent americans do find it material, nothing in this resolution prohibits an american from allocating their capital the way they want to. but what this resolution will do is stop the department of labor from coercing americans into lower performing, higher fee, less diversified politicized funds. we must stop the politicization of allocation of capital. when my friend from illinois says, well, why are republicans picking losers? really? really? in 2022 the s&p 500 energy sector ended the y

someone in kentucky turned him in down here.l, i don't have to be careful about that at all. >> someone picked it up building a case, chris. >> i know they're trying, but if they had gotten me, they would have had me by now. >> and they convinced me, nope, no problem here. we have doctors. we can't tell them what to do. they had the doctors sign forms at the end of every day. you didn't overprescribe, and they did all this to protect themselves. >> i know it's a lot of money. i don't want to talk on the phone too much, but there's a country called belize. it's a great place. >> where is that? >> belize is in south america. i'll tell you more in person. this is strictly for asset protection. >> chris had asked me, is there some place offshore i could put money? he says, i was thinking belize. and i said, well, if you want to take the risk like they did in panama in the 80-something. plus, i didn't think he had any real reason to, you know, because i didn't think they were doing anything that illegal. so there were four safes in t

and i think the reason is that he's focused on issues that matter in kentucky. kitchen table issues. look at that jobs he's brought. ford motor company, a great example. real focus on kitchen table job creation. taking care of working families. he's also had to deal with some awful natural disasters. tornadoes, flooding, and he's been masterful in the face of real challenges. john bel edwards of louisiana, he's a great governor but term limited. so we are in the process of stepping into his shoes. that will not be easy but that is a state we've proven as a party we can win. and i think we've got a real shot, the sleeper for me, is mississippi. a very unpopular governor, our candidate is likely to be brandon pressley, elvis's cousin, statewide elected, a guy with a lot of credentials who speaks again about the kitchen table. so it's gonna be an exciting year. we will be playing aggressively in all three of the states. >> of course part of your role as national governors association chair as a conduit if you will between the white house and the governors of this c
