Since our meetings with Congressman John Yarmuth in the Fall of 2011, we have been organizing a Public Forum. Former independent Louisville Council member Prof. Deonte Hollowell has offered to help get us get a student group to sponsor the event. We are in communications with Congressman Yarmuths scheduler to come up with some open dates for him to participate.

We expect the discussion to cover Kentucky’s Primary systems and look at other States to compare the differences. Currently there are 34 States that have some form of Open Primary system. 6 of the 7 States surrounding Kentucky have some form of Open Primary… West Virginia is the only State using the same Closed Primary system.

We will be updating this event over the next few days, so please check back for updates!

 
Legislative Call to Action! PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 24 January 2012 21:32

Independent Kentucky shot footage of Chairman Lewis calling the Legislative Message Line in 2011. The footage was never used but recycled for this year’s Legislative Call to Action.

In the 2:48 video it shows Chairman Lewis was able to leave a message for State Representative Jim Wayne to support 2011’s SB 41 (Semi Open Primary bill) in only 1:48! This Call to action is about getting people involved.  We can change Frankfort and Kentucky’s political process if they hear YOUR voice!

Call your Legislators today! Legislative Message Line 1-800-372-7181

Wednesday, 18 January 2012 17:22

A key volunteer involved with the production of “IK LIVE!” has had a medical emergency in which we have no choice but to cancel tonight’s meeting. Chairman Lewis sent out this message earlier.

“Unfortunately we are shorthanded when it comes to volunteers with our IK LIVE production. This is a blow to the organization and the people that have been working on it for the last month; however we are confident that the next weeks show will go off without a hitch. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause any of our supporters.

Again our apologies for the inconvenience!
