Forward Kentucky: We need a Wall of Shame for the recently-ended special session

In 2017, the Republican supermajority legislature — egged on by GOP Gov. Matt Bevin — speedily passed a trio of union-busting bills: a “right to work” law, prevailing wage repeal, and a paycheck deception measure.
United Steelworkers District 8 responded with a combo “Workers’ Rights Wall of Fame – Wall of Shame” banner that showed how every House and Senate member voted on all three bills.
I’d like to see our KY120-AFT brothers and sisters and our friends at KEA come up with something similar on Senate Bill 1 and 2, which the Republicans passed in the just concluded special session.
