Today, Kentucky Chamber Senior Vice President of Public Affairs Ashli Watts presented Representative Steven Rudy of Paducah with the Chamber MVP Award. Rep. Rudy was among a select group of legislators who “went to bat” for Kentucky business during the 2018 Kentucky General Assembly.
“During this high-profile legislative session and his 13 years in office, Representative Rudy has been a strong friend to the Chamber and to the business community,” said Kentucky Chamber President and CEO Dave Adkisson. “This session, he chaired the House Appropriations and Revenue Committee, helping craft a biennial budget that prioritizes education funding, and passed House Bill 366, tax reform legislation that improves Kentucky’s competitiveness.”
In addition to monitoring the progress of bills that create a better business climate and advance the Commonwealth, 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.
