Joyce Coomer: Some litter I wonder about Joyce M. Coomer writes: I've been walking some the past month or so around the downtown area and notice quite a bit of trash littering the sidewalks and streets, and some in yards. While I deplore the habit of throwing trash out of a vehicle window, I do understand that basic human laziness is the underlying source of this despicable habit. What does puzzle me are the odd items of clothing that are scattered hither and yon along with the litter. Gloves and head coverings could've fallen out of a pocket or been blown off someone's head so don't think too much about those. However, I do wonder about the socks and underwear that are sometimes scattered along the roadside. How did those get there??? - Joyce M.

Senator Max Wise: Legislative Update 17 Mar 2017 
PERSONAL COMMENTARY: "The Truth About Charter Schools," in which Senator Wise gives his reasons for voting for a bill which he acknowledges has disappointed many . . . and states, "As a state legislator, a public school graduate, and as a parent of children currently in the public school system, I have worked and supported our schools for years. My core fundamental belief has always been that education is a parent's choice, be it public, private, Christian, homeschool, etc. . . ." Click on headline for complete report to the people By State Senator Max Wise, (R-Campbellsville) 16th District: Adair, Clinton, Cumberland, McCreary, Russell, Taylor, and Wayne Counties While many bills passed through both legislative chambers this week, it was House Bill (HB) 520, the legislation to create an opportunity for public charter schools in Kentucky, that dominated the news. I know that many of you, especially my districtwide public school educators, may be disappointed in my vote to support public charter schools in Kentucky. While it is inevitable that constituents will never agree on every vote I take, I prayerfully consider all views and guidance in the job that I do as your state senator. Please allow this op/ed to provide you with information on what a charter school is, the rationale for making the decision that I did, and how public charters will be established in Kentucky.
