2008 Legislative Issues Survey

The 2008 Session of the Kentucky General Assembly begins on January 8, 2008. During the 60 day Session, many complicated and controversial issues will be decided by the Legislature. As your Representative, I want to represent the sentiments of those who reside in my District.

I appreciate those of you who have taken the time to advise me of your concerns and opinions over the past fifteen years. Your opinions are very important to me and I encourage you to complete and return this survey to me. It is truly a way for your voice to be heard.

Please submit this Survey only if you live in the 39th District.  Submit only once per registered voter.

If you wish to mail your Survey results, please select the following printable PDF file format and mail to the address listed at the bottom of the page.

Thank you ... Bob Damron
