Andy Beshear

To Steve and Jane Beshear, I am grateful for your wisdom and passion for helping the people of our great state. You have been wonderful parents.

I'm honored to have the trust and support of the United Mine Workers of America and the working families they represent.

Just like my kids, I was raised with our Kentucky values. We treat everyone with respect, and we look out for our neighbors.

Coal miners work hard and deserve our respect. They also deserve a governor who fights for policies that will give them a fair shot to support their families and get ahead. That's exactly what I'll deliver as governor.

We should all respect and understand how hard our families work every day - and I have a vision to lift up all our families because we can and should be doing so much better.

When we rebuild Kentucky and boost our economy, we need to do it the right way. That means treating our neighbors with the respect they deserve and making sure new growth actually puts more money in the pockets of workers.
