Steven Rudy's Response-
I am very humbled that the voters of the First House District of the Kentucky General Assembly have twice given me the opportunity to represent them in Frankfort. I have every intention of asking those voters for a third term next year. I am disappointed that a media outlet would comment on my future political intentions, or question my schedule with out even bothering to contacting me. One of the challenges of serving in the Kentucky General Assembly, a part-time legislature, is setting a schedule. I must balance my time between my family, my business, attending Interim Committee meetings around the state, and going to events in the five counties of the First District. I am glad to report that I did not miss a single vote on the house floor in 2007 and I trust the citizens of the district will take notice of my record representing them. I appreciate the opportunity to serve, and will continue to make as many events as I possibly can.
God Bless,
Steven Rudy
