And then what we have is different requirements to get what's called public assistance. assistance, which helps states and localities rebuild infrastructure, roads and bridges. And then if you have a really tough natural disaster, individual assistance where families can apply. Well, guess what?

Every application for all of those has to be significantly reviewed and they have to make sure it meets federal law. Right now, there is one group through FEMA that does it for all 50 states. If they eliminate FEMA, each of the states have to do that themselves to tell Congress they're complying with federal law.

That means that the money that currently comes to help our families would get eaten up by overhead, not just in Kentucky, but all across the country. It would be the opposite of efficiency. It'd be making us do what one group does with 50 separate groups across the country.

I'm very concerned. I'm very concerned with the actions of the president, his administration. I'm worried about the example he's setting for the country and how kids growing up are going to view not just this president, but the presidency itself. His policies are going to specifically hurt my people. tariff policy is going to hit Kentucky harder than just about anywhere else.

You look at what's already happening with bourbon. 95% of the world's bourbon is made in Kentucky, but that's all the bourbon worth drinking. Sure is. But this time, it's not just a responsive tariff, say from the EU or from Canada, but Canada is actually removing it entirely from some of the shelves. You look at our auto industry and the fact that we have a company called Martin Rea.

It's a Canadian company. It's got about 500 employees in Western Kentucky and its parts go from Canada to Kentucky to Mexico, back to Kentucky and back to Canada. So these tariffs are going to impact our state. Our number one export target is Canada. It's about 23% of all of our exports. And this president is picking on an ally and a friend in a way that it's gonna hurt my people.

The other thing it's gonna do is raise prices for all Americans. And we need to be talking about it like what it is. It is the Trump tax. So with the tariff, if it goes into effect on Canada, it's gonna raise the price of gas. The amount it increases it is a Trump tax. Mexico, tariffs will increase the price of fruits and vegetables. The amount it increases it is a Trump tax.

Tariff on lumber is going to make that first home even harder to buy. That extra amount that it costs is the Trump tax. And so we just need to be really clear that these are decisions being made by one individual alone. But the thing that moves people the most right now that they understand, maybe at a level that wasn't understood 10 years ago, is Medicaid.
