Beshear Speaks At KACo Conference

  • {Louisville, Kentucky}...In a speech to the Kentucky Association of Counties annual conference Wednesday in Louisville, Governor Steve Beshear touted his stewardship of state government in tough economic times, saying his work is unfinished as he looks ahead to a potential second term if he wins re-election next month. Beshear said he's not going to rest until every Kentuckian that needs a job has a job. Kentucky lost ground on the jobs front in September, when the state unemployment rate rose slightly to 9.7 percent, from 9.5 percent in August.
