Dear Friend,
Trump's policies hit Kentucky where it hurts most: our signature industries and our proud traditions are under Republican attack. This is an assault on Kentucky's most cherished traditions and our way of life.
Yesterday, Churchill Downs hit pause on nearly $1 BILLION in planned expansions that would have transformed the home of the Kentucky Derby for generations. Why? Because of rising prices and the uncertainty caused by Trump’s awful tariffs.
Just days before the 151st Run for the Roses, the economic engine that brings thousands of visitors and national attention to our Commonwealth is scaling back its future because of Trump’s reckless tariffs that Kentucky Republicans support.
First Republicans came for our bourbon. Now they're coming for our Derby.
These are real Kentucky jobs, real Kentucky families, and real Kentucky traditions at stake. These aren't just businesses — they're the heart and soul of our Commonwealth. And where does the Kentucky GOP stand while our heritage is under attack? They're standing with Trump, not with Kentucky workers and businesses.
Patriots defend their heritage. The time to fight back is now. [[link removed]]
With just days until the Derby spotlight shines on Kentucky, we need to make sure visitors know what's really happening in our Commonwealth. Your contribution today [[link removed]] will help us spread the word about how Republicans are hurting Kentucky, support Democratic candidates who fight for Kentucky's industries, and build our grassroots organization to turn out voters who've had enough of Republican policies that put Kentucky last.
Can you chip in $30 today to help us defend Kentucky's economy and traditions? [[link removed]]

When the horses leave the starting gate next weekend, remember what's at stake: not just a two-minute race, but Kentucky's economic future. Together, we can ensure our state's greatest traditions aren't sacrificed to Republicans who don't understand what makes Kentucky great.
For Kentucky,
Colmon Elridge
Kentucky Democratic Party Chair
