Next Thursday is our Chapter Annual Meeting! We hope you join us at the Ed Davis Learning Center as we talk about our plans for the next year as a chapter, upcoming opportunities, and statewide opportunities.

In addition, we are reaching out to candidates for Georgetown City Council and Georgetown Mayor to invite them to respond to our candidate surveys! While 10 candidates already have, we'd love to make sure we can share every candidate's response at kentuckyelection.org this fall!

Do you have Owen Electric? What about Bluegrass?

Come learn about how we can build power in our cooperative areas to promote more affordable and sustainable energy for all - including through energy efficiency work for our low-income neighbors!

If your electric company is a rural electric cooperative, everyone with a bill is a partial owner! Ready to dive into how your co-op works, programs to lower bills, responding to proposed data centers, and even how to get elected to the co-op Board of Directors? Join us virtually on Thursday, May 28 at 7 p.m. ET. Just click here to register: https://www.mobilize.us/kftc/event/931918/

Today, the League of Women Voters of Kentucky released Immigration Detention in Kentucky Jails: Who’s in Charge and What to Ask Them. The report is a guide to help the public understand who makes decisions about their county jails, and suggest questions to not only learn about the conditions for immigrants and other detainees in the jails, but to shine light on a system that could potentially obscure Constitutional violations, such as due process.

The report is the second in a series of reports that the League will issue over the next several months to bring transparency and accountability to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detentions in Kentucky county jails.
