The Rotary Club of Whitesburg welcomed State Representative Leslie Combs as their special guest on Tuesday, September 13th. She has served as the State Representative of the 94th District since 2007. Since being first elected to the legislature, she has risen to become chair of the House Tourism Development and Energy Committee, which covers two of the most important issues that Letcher County and Southeastern Kentucky face on a day-to-day basis. She presented an update on what is happening in the State Capitol and what can be expected in the months ahead as the General Assembly readies for its legislative session beginning in January. She discussed the state of the budget, education, coal severance funds and the job market and entertained questions from members and guests. She encouraged everyone to feel free to contact her regarding legislative concerns and she will continue to be a strong voice for the people of Eastern Kentucky.
