Kentucky Chamber President and CEO Dave Adkisson presents Sen. Damon Thayer with Chamber MVP Award
On Monday, Kentucky Chamber President and CEO Dave Adkisson presented Sen. Damon Thayer, of Georgetown, with the Chamber MVP Award. Sen. Thayer was among a select group of legislators recognized for conspicuous actions supporting Kentucky’s business community during the 2017 Kentucky General Assembly.
“During his time in the legislature, Sen. Thayer has always been a strong friend to the Chamber and the business community, and this was never more evident than in the historic 2017 legislative session,” said Kentucky Chamber President and CEO Dave Adkisson. “Sen. Thayer carried House Bill 1, right-to-work legislation, in the Senate and was critical to its passage. As a small token of our appreciation, we are presenting him with a Chamber MVP award to recognize his support of pro-business policies in such a historic session.”
In addition to monitoring the progress of bills that directly relate to the strength of the Commonwealth’s business community, the Chamber tracks how each legislator votes on these bills. The Chamber’s MVP award recipients displayed more than just a business-friendly voting record, but also went out of their way, and at times across party lines, to support or oppose an issue critical to the business climate in Kentucky.
