J.D. Vance Has “No Business Speaking for Kentucky,” Says KY State Senator

Season 2024 Episode 7021 | 17m 46s

In a recent piece for The Atlantic -- "Hillbilly Women Will Get No Help from J.D. Vance" -- Cassie Chambers Armstrong makes the point that, despite the Republican vice-presidential candidate's claim on his family's Appalachian values, his stated positions show a failure to recognize women's reality. Senator Armstrong joins the show to discuss ways in which rural women could be better supported.
