Sustainaiblity Now! | Tom Fitzgerald | KY Legislative Update | 2-27-23

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, brings you a
Kentucky Legislative Update featuring Tom “Fitz” Fitzgerald. On the evening of Tuesday, Feb. 21st, at United Crescent Hill Ministries, Forward Radio’s proud community partner, the Greater Louisville Sierra Club welcomed Tom “Fitz” Fitzgerald, senior staff attorney for Kentucky Resources Council (https://www.kyrc.org/), for the annual Kentucky General Assembly update. He shared what is happening in Frankfort this legislative session and what we can do as citizen activists working to build a healthier commonwealth.

Fitz was Director of the Kentucky Resources Council from 1984 until October of 2021. KRC is a non-profit environmental advocacy organization providing free legal, strategic, and policy assistance to individuals, organizations, and communities concerning environmental quality, resource extraction, energy, and utility issues. Fitz has been an adjunct professor of energy and environmental law at the Brandeis School of Law at the University of Louisville since 1986. You can learn more about the Sierra Club and register for future monthly programs, like their March 21st program featuring Dr. David Wicks, of The Ohio River Way, at http://sierraclub.org/kentucky
