Despite a survey released by Kentucky Fairness Alliance, Lexington Fairness, Louisville Fairness Campaign, and the ACLU of Kentucky that support for gay and lesbian causes have grown in Kentucky, Kentucky Equality Federation disagrees because nothing has changed.

Republicans gain 10 new Governor’s Mansions, new seats in the Kentucky House, the Kentucky Senate, and take control of the U.S. House of Representatives. With such huge losses to conservatives, the gay military ban will remain in place, with no gay friendly legislation passing either the U.S. or Kentucky Houses or Senates.

According to various sources, the election on November 02, 2010 will be determined by independent voters. If Democratic candidates are counting on long-standing support from gay voters to help stave off big losses on November 2nd, they could be in for a surprise with gay candidates leaning toward the Green and Libertarian Parties.

This year you will find little to no prefiled legislation in Kentucky, a sign that Kentucky lawmakers are not ready to push any particular agenda. Incumbent lawmakers are not sure of the outcome of the November 02, 2010. For better or worse, both Kentucky and the nation are moving in different directions and this election will determine who will control both the Kentucky and the U.S. Senate.

Kentucky Senate President Williams says Kentucky needs new direction, apparently forgetting that his Senate failed to pass a budget, forcing Governor Beshear to call them into special session at an estimated cost of $66,000.00 per day.

Whitley County Judge-Executive Pat White Jr. is hoping to spark a national movement in order to pass and ratify an amendment to the United States Constitution establishing marriage as only being recognized as a union between a man and a woman in the United States of America.

WFPL News reports that Kentucky Senate President David Williams was busy during the weekend, making speeches and taking about Republicans taking additional seats in the Kentucky Senate. No pro-LGBTI legislation has made it through the Republican controlled Senate.

Not a single member of Kentucky’s Congressional Delegation has co-sponsored U.S. House Resolution 3567, the Respect for Marriage Act. It was quickly place in Committee, where it has remained buried since October 19, 2009. The Commonwealth’s U.S. House Delegation currently includes Ed Whitfield (R), Brett Guthrie (R), John Yarmuth (D), Geoff Davis (R), Hal Rogers (R), and Ben Chandler (D).

Kentucky Senate distances itself from Rand Paul and says any form of discrimination is inconsistent with Kentucky values. However, did Senate Resolution 31 include gay and lesbian couples?

Dee Johnson, the mother of Cheyenne Williams says the Kentucky State Police Investigator assigned to investigate the assault of her daughter perjured himself during the preliminary hearing in Jackson County on April 29, 2010. The judge reduced the charges against the three females charged with the attempted murder and kidnapping of Williams to misdemeanors. Johnson told Kentucky Equality Federation, the advocate for the victim, that the police officer testified he spoke to Sheila Clemons at Daniel Boone about the overall mental state and personal appearance of Cheyenne Williams when she arrived for her job interview after the assault. According to Johnson, who contacted Clemons, the police never contacted her about the investigation.
