2016 KY Senate race: on Homeland Security


Jim Gray: Support the military, intelligence community, & diplomacy

We live in a dangerous world--and our government has no greater responsibility than to keep our country and our Commonwealth safe.

We need leaders in the Senate who understand the threat and have the strength and resolve to meet it head on. That includes supporting the military, our intelligence community, and diplomacy that unifies the world behind this mission.

Rand Paul: 2015: Introduced Arming All Pilots Act

Senator Rand Paul has taken up the cause of improving airline safety and introduced a bill titled the Arming All Pilots Act of 2015. "My bill will make it possible for more pilots to get trained and protect flyers. Pilots regularly tell me they've experienced problems with the availability of training under the current program; my bill addresses those concerns and ensures that participants in the program have access to licenses and the critical training they need."
