“Having served my patients for many years, I now seek to serve by listening to, understanding, and promoting the expressed need and wishes of the people who live in the 22nd Senate district to our friends in Frankfort,” Douglas. “Following local, state, and federal issues has been a bedrock of mine for many years, though keeping up with current issues, changes and advancements has been especially challenging during the Covid-19 era.

“As your State Senator, I will remember we work for and represent the needs of our constituents, their families, and our businesses, and I will work to help our economy to thrive and grow. I will be active in all areas of the legislative process for our citizens, but education, controlling taxes (which will allow our economy to grow), and healthcare and insurance issues will be especially important topics to me, as they are to the constituents of the 22nd District and their families,” Douglas.

Born in a log cabin.- the 14th of 16 children – in the small town of Maceo in western Kentucky, Douglas said he is “acutely aware of rural living and the issues that go with this.”

Being part of such a large family, Douglas said he learned a great deal about humility, patience and respect for others.
