On Wednesday, Senator Matt Castlen was presented the Chamber MVP Award by Kentucky Chamber Director of Political Affairs Travis Burton. Senator Castlen was among a select group of legislators who “went to bat” for Kentucky business during the 2020 Kentucky General Assembly.
Recipients of the 2020 Kentucky Chamber MVP Award showed strong leadership for the business community by sponsoring or carrying Kentucky Chamber priority legislation, showing leadership on passage of critical legislation to improve Kentucky or by taking hard votes in defense of business.
In addition to displaying strong leadership in Frankfort, Senator Matt Castlen championed the recovery through employment legislation that will support employers that hire and retain workers who are in addiction recovery.
While 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.
