00:03:35,333 --> 00:03:38,666 Governor Beshear commented on Virginia Moore's passing. 73 00:03:38,666 --> 00:03:40,400 He said in part, quote, 74 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,266 Virginia was a rock of stability and grace during the pandemic. 75 00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:47,666 She helped bring us all together at our most challenging times. 76 00:03:47,966 --> 00:03:50,133 So I hope you'll join

would remind us in our grief, 80 00:03:56,466 --> 00:03:57,933 we will get through this. 81 00:03:57,933 --> 00:04:00,066 We will get through this together. 82 00:04:00,066 --> 00:04:01,400 And quote 83 00:04:01,466 --> 00:04:04,800 and 2020, Moore announced she had uterine cancer. 84 00:04:04,833 --> 00:04:06,600 She had a hysterectomy and returned 85 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,500 to work about a month later. 86 00:04:08,500 --> 00:04:10,966 Funeral plans have not been announced. 87 00:04:11,966 --> 00:04:13,100 Moore became such a 88 00:04:13,100 --> 00:04:16,433 celebrity because of her work as a sign language interpreter. 89 00:04:16,433 --> 00:04:19,666 She even inspired her own bobblehead 90 00:04:19,666 --> 00:04:21,366 like you see on the screen. 91 00:04:21,366 --> 00:04:23,100 We're going to miss her. 92 00:04:23,100 --> 00:04:24,333 Turning to politics, 93 00:04:24,333 --> 00:04:27,733 just eight days to go before the May 16th primary. 94 00:04:28,066 --> 00:04:28,800 The race 95 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,566 getting the most attention, of course, 96 00:04:30,566 --> 00:04:32,600 the Republican race for governor. 97 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,033 We haven't seen a public poll 98 00:04:34,033 --> 00:04:36,200 in a few weeks, but the last one showed a 99 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,533 tight race with Attorney General Daniel Cameron narrowing, 100 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,266 narrowly leading, rather, a former ambassador, Kelly Craft 101 00:04:43,266 --> 00:04:44,233 and ad commissioner 102 00:04:44,233 --> 00:04:47,666 Ryan Quarrels was coming in third in that Emerson College 103 00:04:48,333 --> 00:04:49,100 y poll. 104 00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:52,266 20% of Republicans surveyed were undecided. 105 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,733 Our candidate conversations conclude tonight 106 00:04:55,733 --> 00:04:57,666 with Secretary of State Michael Adams, 107 00:04:57,666 --> 00:05:00,366 who met our criteria to appear on the program. 108 00:05:00,566 --> 00:05:03,166 We hope you'll join us for that conversation at eight Eastern. 109 00:05:03,166 --> 00:05:05,966 Seven Central right here on Katie. 110 00:05:06,966 --> 00:05:09,500 A judge Friday sentenced a Kentucky man 111 00:05:09,500 --> 00:05:12,966 to 14 years in prison for attacking police officers 112 00:05:12,966 --> 00:05:16,966 during the January six, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. 113 00:05:16,966 --> 00:05:17,733 Capitol. 114 00:05:17,733 --> 00:05:19,966 It's the longest sentence yet. 115 00:05:19,966 --> 00:05:22,633 Peter Schwartz is a welder from Owensboro. 116 00:05:22,633 --> 00:05:23,900 Although he was working in 117 00:05:23,900 --> 00:05:26,000 Pennsylvania prior to his arrest. 118 00:05:26,366 --> 00:05:29,733 Schwartz and his wife are part of the group that stormed 119 00:05:29,733 --> 00:05:32,733 the Capitol, angry over what they saw as president. 120 00:05:32,733 --> 00:05:36,633 Joe Biden's fraudulent win and the 2020 presidential election. 121 00:05:36,966 --> 00:05:40,100 And December, a jury convicted Schwartz and two other 122 00:05:40,100 --> 00:05:43,133 people of assault and other felony charges. 123 00:05:43,133 --> 00:05:46,233 He attacked police with pepper spray and a chair. 124 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,966 And court Friday, Schwartz said he was sorry about the damage 125 00:05:50,366 --> 00:05:52,766 that January six caused to so many people. 126 00:05:52,766 --> 00:05:56,700 But the judge criticized Schwartz for a lack of remorse 127 00:05:57,900 --> 00:06:00,700 made to win the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, 128 00:06:00,700 --> 00:06:04,566 but not before a deadly week and a half at Churchill Downs. 129 00:06:04,833 --> 00:06:08,300 Seven horses died at the track between April 27th 130 00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:10,200 and the Derby on May 6th. 131 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,966 Four died of leg injuries. 132 00:06:11,966 --> 00:06:13,966 One died from a neck injury. 133 00:06:13,966 --> 00:06:16,900 Two more died from causes still unknown 134 00:06:17,633 --> 00:06:20,333 on May 22nd, two days after the Preakness. 135 00:06:20,366 --> 00:06:24,166 The horse racing industry will adopt new anti-doping rules. 136 00:06:24,466 --> 00:06:26,533 Anti-inflammatories and supplements 137 00:06:26,533 --> 00:06:30,333 will be banned on race day and the 48 hours before 138 00:06:30,366 --> 00:06:34,000 race horses can only be given water, hay and oats. 139 00:06:34,333 --> 00:06:37,066 There are punishments in place and illegal substances 140 00:06:37,066 --> 00:06:38,500 are detected in a horse. 141 00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:42,066 Punishments that range from suspensions to lifetime bans. 142 00:06:42,366 --> 00:06:45,566 It also creates uniform rules that will be consistent 143 00:06:45,566 --> 00:06:46,966 across the country. 144 00:06:46,966 --> 00:06:49,466 Congressman Andy Barr of Kentucky's sixth District 145 00:06:49,666 --> 00:06:52,200 co-sponsored the legislation to create the new rules. 146 00:06:52,433 --> 00:06:56,433 Here's what he said about them as the bill was debated in 2020. 147 00:06:57,333 --> 00:07:00,433 I've always believed that the future prosperity of this 148 00:07:00,433 --> 00:07:03,633 sport depends on uniformity of the rules of racing 149 00:07:04,133 --> 00:07:06,633 and currently has been noted, regulated by 150 00:07:06,633 --> 00:07:09,400 38 separate racing jurisdictions. 151 00:07:09,633 --> 00:07:10,300 The thoroughbred 152 00:07:10,300 --> 00:07:13,900 horse racing industry labors under a patchwork of conflicting 153 00:07:14,133 --> 00:07:17,666 and inconsistent state based rules governing prohibited 154 00:07:17,833 --> 00:07:20,300 substances, lab accreditation, testing 155 00:07:20,633 --> 00:07:22,766 and penalties for violations. 156 00:07:22,766 --> 00:07:26,333 This lack of uniformity has impeded interstate commerce. 157 00:07:26,333 --> 00:07:27,733 It has compromised 158 00:07:27,733 --> 00:07:30,666 the international competitiveness of the industry. 159 00:07:30,766 --> 00:07:32,866 It has undermined public confidence 160 00:07:32,866 --> 00:07:34,966 in the safety and integrity of the sport. 161 00:07:35,266 --> 00:07:38,200 And the industry is in desperate need of certainty. 162 00:07:38,766 --> 00:07:40,100 As a conservative 163 00:07:40,100 --> 00:07:42,133 who believes in federalism and state's rights, 164 00:07:42,133 --> 00:07:46,200 I nevertheless understand that the Constitution gives Congress 165 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,000 the power to regulate interstate commerce precisely 166 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,566 for the purpose of eliminating 167 00:07:51,566 --> 00:07:55,033 these kinds of impediments to interstate exchange. 168 00:07:55,433 --> 00:07:57,466 And as I've said many times, 169 00:07:57,466 --> 00:07:59,400 as a limited government conservative, 170 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,700 this legislative effort is not about more regulation. 171 00:08:04,033 --> 00:08:07,500 It is about creating a single nationwide set of rules 172 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,866 that will result in smarter, more effective and streamlined 173 00:08:11,866 --> 00:08:13,366 regulation for the industry. 174 00:08:14,433 --> 00:08:16,833 Because the rules are being implemented two days 175 00:08:16,833 --> 00:08:19,000 after the Preakness, they will be in place 176 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,166 in time for the third leg of the Triple Crown, 177 00:08:21,433 --> 00:08:23,966 the Belmont Stakes on June the 10th. 178 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,966 Some 150,000 people packed 179 00:08:27,966 --> 00:08:30,833 Churchill Downs for the Derby, the track reported. 180 00:08:31,033 --> 00:08:33,366 Betting on the Derby broke a new record. 181 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,433 Our Laura Rogers takes us to the sights and sounds 182 00:08:36,433 --> 00:08:38,633 of the greatest 2 minutes in sports. 183 00:08:45,300 --> 00:08:48,966 It's remarkable that a tradition running 149 years 184 00:08:48,966 --> 00:08:51,100 continues to be filled with firsts. 185 00:08:52,833 --> 00:08:54,900 There's nothing greater than being at Churchill Downs 186 00:08:54,900 --> 00:08:56,233 on the first Saturday of May. 187 00:08:56,233 --> 00:09:00,166 The Edge family from Owensboro, longtime Derby fans. 188 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,966 I've been coming to the Derby since I was 12 years old, 189 00:09:03,033 --> 00:09:06,000 but this is their first time having some skin in the game 190 00:09:06,166 --> 00:09:08,300 where the number four confidence game. 191 00:09:08,366 --> 00:09:11,500 Being here is literally a dream come true with the Derby horse 192 00:09:11,500 --> 00:09:13,733 that he's not my horse, he's my brother's horse. 193 00:09:13,733 --> 00:09:15,533 But I keep calling him my nephew, 194 00:09:15,533 --> 00:09:18,933 my four legged nephew, another first jockey, Kazuki 195 00:09:18,933 --> 00:09:22,266 Kimura's, first time to race at Churchill Downs. 196 00:09:22,300 --> 00:09:24,166 I've got a couple of horses that have a 197 00:09:24,166 --> 00:09:25,866 little bit of a better shot here. 198 00:09:25,866 --> 00:09:29,166 This is, you know, best race in North America. 199 00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:31,566 And I'm trying to just enjoy the place. 200 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,333 Camera on Japan bred Mandarin hero after two 201 00:09:35,333 --> 00:09:37,033 other horses scratched. 202 00:09:37,033 --> 00:09:40,633 So far, great weather and the great people in the big day. 203 00:09:40,833 --> 00:09:42,033 I'm enjoying it. 204 00:09:42,033 --> 00:09:44,233 The day starting with some breaking news 205 00:09:44,233 --> 00:09:47,600 for the 4 to 1 favorite to win the Kentucky Derby 206 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,333 scratched from the race due to a foot injury. 207 00:09:50,566 --> 00:09:52,800 The state horse Racing Commission veterinarian 208 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,300 making that decision Saturday morning. 209 00:09:55,300 --> 00:09:57,566 I'm not a big gambler in terms of horse racing, 210 00:09:57,566 --> 00:09:59,366 but you always look at the favorites. 211 00:09:59,366 --> 00:10:02,066 Sports fan Tom netting from the Washington, D.C. 212 00:10:02,066 --> 00:10:05,566 area, calling the Kentucky Derby a bucket list item. 213 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,966 We've been hitting the top 500 before. 214 00:10:08,100 --> 00:10:09,433 We've been to Daytona. 215 00:10:09,433 --> 00:10:10,633 We've been to a U.S. Open. 216 00:10:10,633 --> 00:10:12,333 We've done a number of different things, 217 00:10:12,333 --> 00:10:14,033 but we've never done any of the horse racing. 218 00:10:14,033 --> 00:10:17,366 And where better to do it than in Kentucky at Churchill Downs? 219 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,500 Not his first time, but the 28 for the official 220 00:10:20,500 --> 00:10:23,200 bugler of Churchill Downs and to the Kentucky Derby. 221 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,066 Steve Borman I feel good, but I mean, I always get nervous 222 00:10:27,066 --> 00:10:30,533 before the Derby because, I mean, you can't help but, 223 00:10:31,033 --> 00:10:32,000 you know, realize 224 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,233 that this is the biggest race of the whole year. 225 00:10:34,266 --> 00:10:38,333 Emotional when he considers the magnitude of this historic day. 226 00:10:38,933 --> 00:10:41,766 When I turn around and see all of this 227 00:10:42,233 --> 00:10:43,466 and the twin spires 228 00:10:43,466 --> 00:10:45,433 and everybody having a great time, I just think, 229 00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:49,266 God, what did I do to deserve to be that guy? 230 00:10:49,933 --> 00:10:52,166 And I just say, thank you, God, 231 00:10:52,166 --> 00:10:55,000 and please help me not screw up. 232 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,566 It's also not lost on Kamura that he's 233 00:10:57,566 --> 00:11:00,400 taking part in the world's most famous horse race. 234 00:11:00,700 --> 00:11:02,200 This is special. 235 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,333 I'm always watching from the TV, and I was thinking like, 236 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,233 one day I'm going to be here. 237 00:11:07,233 --> 00:11:08,100 And today, the day. 238 00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:10,700 So yeah, I'm so happy for that. 239 00:11:10,833 --> 00:11:12,666 The horses take center stage, 240 00:11:12,666 --> 00:11:14,766 but also getting a lot of attention. 241 00:11:14,766 --> 00:11:17,900 The fashion Kentucky Derby, it's all about the hat. 242 00:11:17,900 --> 00:11:21,566 So I love iconic movie hats, and Rose is one 243 00:11:21,566 --> 00:11:23,500 I've always wanted to try to replicate. 244 00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:25,200 Got my heart of the ocean 245 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,266 cowl, went back

When that comes by. 259 00:11:52,700 --> 00:11:54,600 And it's a level you can just feel the wind come through. 260 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:55,466 You can feel that 261 00:11:55,466 --> 00:11:57,066

00:12:05,166 one and three because I played the names. 265 00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:05,966 I got the pen. 266 00:12:05,966 --> 00:12:07,733 I got the looking at the 267 00:12:07,733 --> 00:12:08,566 the odds that are up 268 00:12:08,566 --> 00:12:10,500 and live coming in and seeing how we're doing, 269 00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:11,466 cross the numbers out. 270 00:12:11,466 --> 00:12:12,333 And really,

00:12:22,500 major, just taking the lead. 277 00:12:22,500 --> 00:12:25,833 It turned out to be the day for mage who came from behind 278 00:12:25,833 --> 00:12:30,000 to win by a late stage digs down deep down to the wire. 279 00:12:30,166 --> 00:12:32,200 It does not matter where you are in the world. 280 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,800 My mom has said you better stop and watch the Kentucky Derby. 281 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,266 I don't care where you are with this. 282 00:12:39,066 --> 00:12:43,033 Race Matters for Kentucky Edition, I'm Laura Rogers. 283 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,433 Thank you, Laura. 284 00:12:44,433 --> 00:12:47,300 2023 also marks the 50th anniversary 285 00:12:47,566 --> 00:12:51,133 of Secretariat's Triple Crown, when the thoroughbred still 286 00:12:51,133 --> 00:12:54,900 holds the record for the fastest time in all three races. 287 00:13:01,166 --> 00:13:04,333 Last Thursday, a student at Louisville, Seneca High School, 288 00:13:04,333 --> 00:13:07,600 organized a forum to discuss the topic of mental health. 289 00:13:07,933 --> 00:13:09,966 Several speakers took part in the event, 290 00:13:09,966 --> 00:13:11,766 which covered a range of topics 291 00:13:11,766 --> 00:13:13,966 concerning student led activism. 292 00:13:13,966 --> 00:13:17,333 More on that forum and a reminder that May is 293 00:13:17,333 --> 00:13:20,933 Mental Health Awareness Month. 294 00:13:23,033 --> 00:13:24,466 We just brought you 295 00:13:24,466 --> 00:13:27,566 all here today to talk about how mental 296 00:13:27,566 --> 00:13:30,033 health really affects, especially the youth. 297 00:13:30,733 --> 00:13:33,200 As a kid, I've seen many traumatic things 298 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,033 from seeing Mom getting used to sleeping in our car, 299 00:13:36,366 --> 00:13:38,833 to not knowing when the next time food was going to come in. 300 00:13:39,933 --> 00:13:42,700 I was never the average boy 301 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,600 or amount that she would see, and I was different 302 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,900 and I couldn't see my work at the time. 303 00:13:47,900 --> 00:13:50,400 I would get picked on and bullied and didn't know how 304 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,033 to handle it. 305 00:13:52,500 --> 00:13:54,933 It got to a point where I didn't want to live anymore. 306 00:13:55,666 --> 00:13:59,666 I never liked people to knew where I came from. 307 00:13:59,700 --> 00:14:00,633 I never like people 308 00:14:00,633 --> 00:14:04,133 to know my struggle because I was embarrassed. 309 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,200 But I had to get to a point where my struggle could help 310 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,266 someone else. 311 00:14:09,266 --> 00:14:10,933 And give them that push 312 00:14:10,933 --> 00:14:13,100 that they may have needed to keep going in life. 313 00:14:13,366 --> 00:14:16,633 The excused absences for Student Mental Health Days 314 00:14:16,933 --> 00:14:20,133 that was really organized by students. 315 00:14:20,133 --> 00:14:22,233 That was an idea for legislation 316 00:14:22,233 --> 00:14:24,600 that came to me by way of high school students. 317 00:14:24,633 --> 00:14:27,633 To hear these students talk about their mental health, 318 00:14:27,633 --> 00:14:29,600 to advocate for mental health, 319 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,133 to ask such deep questions about mental health. 320 00:14:33,700 --> 00:14:37,300 None of this is surprising, but it is inspiring 321 00:14:37,900 --> 00:14:40,733 to see kids grappling with difficult issues. 322 00:14:41,066 --> 00:14:43,666 Public policy can help mental health. 323 00:14:43,666 --> 00:14:47,300 Public policy can also be a threat to mental health. 324 00:14:47,300 --> 00:14:49,466 When we're moving in the wrong direction. 325 00:14:49,466 --> 00:14:52,833 And we saw a lot of that in this past legislative session 326 00:14:53,533 --> 00:14:55,833 with with bills, with legislation 327 00:14:55,833 --> 00:14:58,900 specifically targeting LGBTQ 328 00:14:58,933 --> 00:15:04,400 kids, trans kids in particular, being a target of 329 00:15:05,066 --> 00:15:07,533 very damaging legislation. 330 00:15:07,766 --> 00:15:13,066 As a member of LGBTQ community, a lot of LGBTQ youth feel alone 331 00:15:13,666 --> 00:15:15,800 and they just feel like they have no one to talk to. 332 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,333 It kind of makes me scared just for the future 333 00:15:18,333 --> 00:15:21,900 of our country, for the future of kids like me. 334 00:15:22,366 --> 00:15:23,900 Just because I feel like the bills 335 00:15:23,900 --> 00:15:25,933 that are getting passed will cause more suicides 336 00:15:25,933 --> 00:15:27,533 in LGBTQ youth. 337 00:15:27,533 --> 00:15:28,700 It means everything 338 00:15:28,700 --> 00:15:30,300 just to show people that 339 00:15:30,300 --> 00:15:31,833 they're not alone and to show people 340 00:15:31,833 --> 00:15:34,400 that they can speak out and that they don't 341 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,033 have to feel like they have no one to talk to. 342 00:15:36,033 --> 00:15:38,400 It means everything to me because I would have 343 00:15:38,933 --> 00:15:41,066 I would have given my all less than five years ago 344 00:15:41,466 --> 00:15:44,033 to be able to sit in that audience and hear my peers say, 345 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:44,933 You're not alone. 346 00:15:45,900 --> 00:15:48,166 I've always been a kid who wanted to make change 347 00:15:48,166 --> 00:15:52,833 in this world and give kids what I didn't get to have. 348 00:15:54,333 --> 00:15:57,400 And, you know, I've seen a lot of people 349 00:15:57,700 --> 00:16:00,633 and a lot of staff, and I was like, Well, 350 00:16:00,633 --> 00:16:04,333 let's try a student led or event. 351 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,600 Let's try to see that 352 00:16:07,666 --> 00:16:09,966 if other kids are seeing their peers 353 00:16:10,333 --> 00:16:13,066 doing something like this and maybe this will inspire them 354 00:16:13,566 --> 00:16:16,033 to do something as well. 355 00:16:19,133 --> 00:16:21,566 Student organizer Cameron Austin, who you just saw 356 00:16:21,566 --> 00:16:24,733 there, has put together several other events at the school. 357 00:16:30,466 --> 00:16:32,600 It's Teacher Appreciation Week. 358 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,466 And today Kentucky's teachers received a video. 359 00:16:35,466 --> 00:16:38,766 Thank you from Education Commissioner Jason Glass. 360 00:16:39,033 --> 00:16:41,866 More in tonight's Education Matters. 361 00:16:44,766 --> 00:16:46,333 Teachers are the backbone 362 00:16:46,333 --> 00:16:48,633 of our education system and they play a vital role 363 00:16:48,633 --> 00:16:50,666 in shaping the future of our commonwealth. 364 00:16:51,066 --> 00:16:53,633 Our educators are responsible for preparing students 365 00:16:53,633 --> 00:16:56,233 for success, both academically and in life. 366 00:16:56,500 --> 00:16:58,966 They inspire our children to learn, think critically 367 00:16:58,966 --> 00:16:59,666 and be creative, 368 00:16:59,666 --> 00:17:00,933 and they provide a safe 369 00:17:00,933 --> 00:17:02,433 and supportive learning environment 370 00:17:02,433 --> 00:17:03,766 for children to grow and develop. 371 00:17:03,766 --> 00:17:06,166 And they help our children discover their passions 372 00:17:06,433 --> 00:17:08,866 and guide them toward their goals. 373 00:17:08,866 --> 00:17:12,633 Teaching is not just a job, it's a calling, Kentucky's teachers 374 00:17:12,633 --> 00:17:14,433 answered that call every day 375 00:17:14,433 --> 00:17:16,866 with dedication, passion and commitment 376 00:17:18,633 --> 00:17:19,766 in higher education. 377 00:17:19,766 --> 00:17:22,133 News Over 4000 graduates 378 00:17:22,433 --> 00:17:25,600 cross the stage this weekend at the University of Kentucky. 379 00:17:25,933 --> 00:17:28,700 But Tamara, Vet's journey to graduation 380 00:17:28,700 --> 00:17:30,433 stands out from the crowd. 381 00:17:30,433 --> 00:17:30,966 She entered 382 00:17:30,966 --> 00:17:34,866 Duke as a freshman, having just aged out of foster care. 383 00:17:35,133 --> 00:17:37,266 Now she has her master's degree. 384 00:17:37,966 --> 00:17:39,700 Something that I think is really misunderstood 385 00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:40,466 about foster care 386 00:17:40,466 --> 00:17:42,100 is that a lot of people will come into it 387 00:17:42,100 --> 00:17:44,700 thinking that children have been in foster care 388 00:17:44,700 --> 00:17:46,966 because they've been bad or they have other issues, 389 00:17:46,966 --> 00:17:49,200 and that's actually not the case. 390 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,900 Most kids will go into care due to abuse or neglect or 391 00:17:52,100 --> 00:17:53,266 no fault of their own. 392 00:17:53,266 --> 00:17:55,700 I grew up in a home 393 00:17:55,700 --> 00:17:58,966 first with a single parent and he passed away when I was nine. 394 00:17:58,966 --> 00:18:01,033 So I went to live with a relative. 395 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,300 And when I was growing up in that placement, I experienced 396 00:18:04,300 --> 00:18:07,433 a lot of abuse and neglect and a lack of support. 397 00:18:07,433 --> 00:18:10,666 And then I went into the foster care system and I experienced 398 00:18:10,666 --> 00:18:14,166 an instability of placements throughout that time as well. 399 00:18:14,666 --> 00:18:17,066 And I aged out of foster care at the age of 18. 400 00:18:17,066 --> 00:18:19,033 I noticed a lot of things as a young adult 401 00:18:19,033 --> 00:18:21,800 just trying to navigate college and adulthood. 402 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,000 Life. 403 00:18:23,100 --> 00:18:23,366 You know, 404 00:18:23,366 --> 00:18:23,633 you don't 405 00:18:23,633 --> 00:18:25,300 have that support that you would have 406 00:18:25,300 --> 00:18:27,700 if you had two parents or even one parent. 407 00:18:27,733 --> 00:18:30,900 You know, things such as housing stability, financial support, 408 00:18:30,900 --> 00:18:33,033 emotional support, mental health support, 409 00:18:33,033 --> 00:18:34,900 health insurance and things like that. 410 00:18:34,900 --> 00:18:36,800 So those are a lot of the needs that I saw. 411 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,033 I actually first started as a political science major, 412 00:18:40,366 --> 00:18:43,200 and I failed my entire first year. 413 00:18:43,766 --> 00:18:47,200 I was one of those young people who left foster care, 414 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,466 who did not have a lot of support. 415 00:18:48,466 --> 00:18:50,000 And I started noticing that 416 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,133 if I was somebody who faced these challenges 417 00:18:53,133 --> 00:18:54,966 because of being in foster care, that there was probably 418 00:18:54,966 --> 00:18:57,733 so many more that were facing challenges 419 00:18:57,733 --> 00:18:59,666 because of things that were out of their control. 420 00:18:59,666 --> 00:19:01,300 And so I wanted to go into a field 421 00:19:01,300 --> 00:19:03,166 that would help those types of populations, 422 00:19:03,166 --> 00:19:04,600 not just people in foster care. 423 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:05,666 So that's kind of 424 00:19:05,666 --> 00:19:06,933 how I landed in social work 425 00:19:06,933 --> 00:19:09,000 and why I stuck with it. And apparently I loved it 426 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,733 so much that I decided to master it. 427 00:19:10,733 --> 00:19:15,500 10% of foster alumni will try to pursue higher education, 428 00:19:15,833 --> 00:19:18,833 and 3% will graduate with a bachelor's degree. 429 00:19:18,866 --> 00:19:20,933 These young people are coming right out of foster care 430 00:19:20,933 --> 00:19:23,033 and they don't have experience with jobs there. 431 00:19:23,233 --> 00:19:27,066 They don't have experience balancing a job and school. 432 00:19:27,066 --> 00:19:28,600 And so they can't pay for 433 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,366 their bills at home and they can't pay 434 00:19:30,366 --> 00:19:31,633 for college at the same time. 435 00:19:31,633 --> 00:19:34,500 So it's just really difficult to cross that financial barrier. 436 00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:35,666 When I was on the voices 437 00:19:35,666 --> 00:19:37,400 of the Commonwealth as a co-chair, 438 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,833 my chairperson and I work together to expand. 439 00:19:39,833 --> 00:19:42,366 They foster an adopted tuition waiver 440 00:19:42,366 --> 00:19:44,500 for young people who come out of foster care or 441 00:19:44,566 --> 00:19:46,066 have been adopted in Kentucky, 442 00:19:46,066 --> 00:19:46,966 and that is for any 443 00:19:46,966 --> 00:19:50,533 public school in the state, up to 150 credit hours. 444 00:19:50,833 --> 00:19:53,300 So we really expanded it so that young people 445 00:19:53,300 --> 00:19:55,433 had the flexibility to get bachelor's degrees 446 00:19:55,433 --> 00:19:57,533 or to get any other type of degree that they wanted. 447 00:19:57,833 --> 00:20:00,266 And it also now includes graduate tuition. 448 00:20:00,300 --> 00:20:01,700 So I was able to get my master's 449 00:20:01,700 --> 00:20:03,333 fully covered by that waiver as well. 450 00:20:03,333 --> 00:20:05,966 If you're looking for support, advocate for that, 451 00:20:05,966 --> 00:20:07,633 because that's something that I did. 452 00:20:07,633 --> 00:20:08,700 And actually I'm 453 00:20:08,700 --> 00:20:11,533 going through an adult adoption right now at 26 years old. 454 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,666 A lot of people don't know that that exists, 455 00:20:13,666 --> 00:20:17,666 but it does so and that happened because I advocated 456 00:20:17,666 --> 00:20:18,733 for myself as an adult. 457 00:20:18,733 --> 00:20:20,733 That was something that I always wanted, was that 458 00:20:20,733 --> 00:20:22,400 that permanency of a family. So. 459 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,633 So just making sure that you're owning your experience 460 00:20:24,866 --> 00:20:27,666 and advocating for your needs because that lands you where 461 00:20:27,666 --> 00:20:28,233 you need to be. 462 00:20:29,333 --> 00:20:30,466 Good for her. 463 00:20:30,466 --> 00:20:32,600 Tamara works as a policy and advocacy 464 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,100 analyst for Kentucky Youth advocates in Louisville, 465 00:20:35,333 --> 00:20:37,866 helping to shape our state's child welfare programs. 466 00:20:38,100 --> 00:20:40,600 She hopes to one day run for office. 467 00:20:46,266 --> 00:20:49,666 The city of Vandenberg held a special military Banner's 468 00:20:49,666 --> 00:20:53,700 dedication ceremony on Saturday as part of its Rivertown fair. 469 00:20:53,966 --> 00:20:56,866 More than 100 banners were hung around the town 470 00:20:56,866 --> 00:20:59,866 to honor those connected with Lewis County, who have served 471 00:20:59,866 --> 00:21:01,866 over the years. 472 00:21:12,100 --> 00:21:12,633 We're here 473 00:21:12,633 --> 00:21:15,733 today to celebrate mainly the veterans. 474 00:21:16,066 --> 00:21:18,833 We've hung 113 banners. 475 00:21:19,633 --> 00:21:22,300 We've got 50 some more to hang. 476 00:21:22,466 --> 00:21:26,233 There's a couple that people that has ties to Vandenberg. 477 00:21:26,233 --> 00:21:28,633 They didn't actually live in Vandenberg. 478 00:21:28,633 --> 00:21:31,600 And there's veterans from all the way back 479 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,366 to the Civil War, World War one of Korea. 480 00:21:35,666 --> 00:21:37,866 They're living in some of the veterans are living 481 00:21:37,866 --> 00:21:40,833 some of the see, some were killed in action. 482 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,966 We've not restricted it at all. 483 00:21:42,966 --> 00:21:47,300 Anybody that wanted to want to participate, we let them. 484 00:21:47,866 --> 00:21:48,833 Carl Logan? 485 00:21:50,233 --> 00:21:52,266 No. Logan. 486 00:21:52,733 --> 00:21:54,266 Jack Lykins 487 00:21:54,266 --> 00:21:56,833 about a year ago or so. 488 00:21:56,833 --> 00:22:00,666 The city wanted to do something with the Vietnam veterans. 489 00:22:00,666 --> 00:22:02,800 Their kids killed in action. 490 00:22:03,666 --> 00:22:08,733 So I volunteered to come down and help seek out these families 491 00:22:08,733 --> 00:22:11,800 that don't live here anymore or they're deceased. 492 00:22:12,166 --> 00:22:14,300 And we said, we've got to carry this project 493 00:22:14,366 --> 00:22:19,566 on because Louis County is very rich with veterans of all war. 494 00:22:20,100 --> 00:22:23,133 So we thought it's a must that we carry this on. 495 00:22:23,566 --> 00:22:26,600 They could just be a veteran or they could be a war veteran, 496 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,433 but they're usually somewhere in a conflict 497 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,633 from the 162 banners. 498 00:22:31,633 --> 00:22:34,233 They represent 18 wars or conflicts. 499 00:22:35,433 --> 00:22:38,700 Three Pearl Harbor survivors, three veterans who served 500 00:22:38,700 --> 00:22:42,533 in three different wars, three veterans who were P.O.W.s, 501 00:22:43,633 --> 00:22:46,333 14 veterans who were killed in the Vietnam War, 502 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:48,200 two veterans 503 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,300 who were killed in action in World War Two 504 00:22:51,266 --> 00:22:53,333 and one killed in action in Korea. 505 00:22:53,633 --> 00:22:55,900 I've been in office a little over four years. 506 00:22:56,233 --> 00:22:57,200 This is absolutely 507 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,500 the most positive thing that I've had feedback on. 508 00:23:00,766 --> 00:23:02,933 And it's just not local feedback. 509 00:23:02,933 --> 00:23:06,166 It's from different county states, even. 510 00:23:06,566 --> 00:23:09,733 And we've had family that come as far as Florida. 511 00:23:10,633 --> 00:23:14,033 They came from all over to see the banners. 512 00:23:14,133 --> 00:23:16,266 I'm hoping that they realize 513 00:23:17,333 --> 00:23:20,566 what veterans means to our county and our city. 514 00:23:21,066 --> 00:23:23,966 And if we're going to do what we can do 515 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:29,233 to show them our appreciation here, we have request at all 516 00:23:29,233 --> 00:23:34,966 times about can you put my dad and my brother on the same pole? 517 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,133 Can you do this or that? 518 00:23:37,133 --> 00:23:39,300 So we've actually got a grandfather, 519 00:23:39,333 --> 00:23:42,500 a grandson, and a great grandson on the same pole. 520 00:23:43,066 --> 00:23:44,500 On that pole that I'm on. 521 00:23:44,500 --> 00:23:47,400 I have a brother and he's very ill. 522 00:23:47,466 --> 00:23:51,033 He's a veteran and he's he's actually bad fast. 523 00:23:51,666 --> 00:23:56,333 And it makes me feel good that they brought him in an ambulance 524 00:23:57,833 --> 00:23:59,266 to that POW 525 00:24:00,900 --> 00:24:01,666 and he could see 526 00:24:01,666 --> 00:24:04,900 Flag Day, no doubt. 527 00:24:06,100 --> 00:24:09,600 That's really what it means to go there 528 00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:14,633 and say, wow, what a special tribute. 529 00:24:14,866 --> 00:24:17,433 Families are still able to purchase the banners. 530 00:24:17,466 --> 00:24:19,600 The mayor says they plan to keep the banners up 531 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:23,033 as long as possible and hopes to have more than 200 532 00:24:23,033 --> 00:24:26,033 hung by the 4th of July. 533 00:24:26,033 --> 00:24:29,233
