Sannie Overly visited Ohio County as part of her multi-county listening tour focused on the issues that matter to Kentucky’s working families in rural parts of the state, according to a press release from Conway/Overly Campaign. Rep. Overly – who grew up on her family’s farm in Bourbon County – visited Lil’ Stevies restaurant during a meet-and-greet stop in Beaver Dam. Rep. Overly discussed how she and Attorney General Jack Conway will support Kentucky’s rural families as Governor and Lieutenant Governor by improving high-speed Internet access, investing in infrastructure and education, standing up for Kentucky’s farmers, and creating more good-paying jobs across the Commonwealth. “Jack Conway and I are ready to move Kentucky forward as Governor and Lieutenant Governor,” Rep. Overly said. “We are excited to continue crisscrossing the state, visiting our rural counties, and having these serious conversations about growing our economy by creating good-paying jobs, investing in education, and building out broadband Internet – a vital piece of infrastructure for our rural communities. I grew up on my family’s farm in Bourbon County, where everyone worked hard, pitched in, and got things done – and that’s the mentality that Jack Conway and I will bring to the Governor’s office.” Rep. Overly kicked off her Kentucky Rural Families Tour in May, and has visited counties in every corner of the Commonwealth as part of her tour.
