Frankfort, KY — Some of Kentucky’s top political leaders are promising a unified effort to combat the drug epidemic. A bipartisan gathering that included U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Gov.-elect Andy Beshear and Attorney General-elect Daniel Cameron attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a soon-to-open substance abuse recovery center in southeastern Kentucky. Beshear, a Democrat, called the drug epidemic the “challenge of our times.” He says political leaders must come together because lives hang in the balance. Cameron, a Republican, continued the theme, saying the drug-epidemic challenge has no party designation. Cameron vowed to work with Beshear, the GOP-led legislature and law enforcement to fight drug problems. Cameron will succeed Beshear as state attorney general.
