Of course they did. Headed back to the lower chamber (House), where I am pretty sure it will pass. Not a good time to seek faculty work in KY.

Kentucky Senate passes bill making it easier to cut faculty

Faculty groups have slammed the measure, which would allow boards to terminate instructors who teach programs with low enrollment or revenue.

This #climate is a serious clusterfuck I am telling you.

It is about 80F locally now. 🥵

Weather service just issued a fucking freeze warning from this Sat. at 12am to about 10am on Sat. Let me repeat: a freeze warning. 🌡️🥶

Slow the fuck down. No, your fancy jacked up pickup truck is NOT going to save you from ice.

In #FollowUp, now it is snowing. At least an inch expected, and we'll probably get it easy today.

If you can't keep your fucking religious/faith beliefs out of your medical/healer practice, go find another job and GTFO of the way.

‘Medical conscience’ bills would let providers refuse more health care • Kentucky Lantern

Legislation in at least eight states would expand the rights of doctors, nurses, hospitals and even insurance companies to refuse to provide or pay for care.

Translation: for KY legislators and the people who elect them, if a medical doctor is not white, it ain't right.

Racism is hazardous to Kentuckians' health • Kentucky Lantern

Kentucky lawmakers' comments about foreign-trained doctors were not as bluntly racist as Andy Barr's vile 30-second ad but they were just as telling.

Why did Andy Barr run a racist ad? It’s all about Donald Trump • Kentucky Lantern

U.S. Rep. Andy Barr’s racist pitch is basically in one 30-second commercial, but it has at least for now defined his campaign for U.S Senate.
