Jefferson County | Kentuckians For The Commonwealth

Chapter: Jefferson County

Public education policy that supports students, caregivers, and educators is a top priority for members at the Jefferson County KFTC chapter. Our members are opposed to any break-up of the Jefferson County Public Schools district, and have heard overwhelmingly from Kentuckians that more funding is the foundation of public education that meets the needs of Kentuckians.

You can join our KFTC Public Education Policy Workteam meetings here.



Since the chapter formed in 1983, we have supported and worked with allies on issues that affect you and me, including affordable housing, police abuse, sweat shops, hazardous waste reduction and recycling. Our doors are open to anyone who wants to fight for justice while building a compassionate, connected, and fun community here in our great city.

The Hispanic Latino Coalition in Louisville held a People Not Profiles demonstration yesterday to challenge Arizona's anti-immigrant laws.  

Over 100 protesters (including KFTC members) gathered outside the building housing Louisville's immigration offices to protest Arizona's controversial SB 1070. After hearing speakers from several local organizations, the march progressed to Fourth Street Live, where a "Show Us Your Papers" demonstration was held.
