Amanda Mays Bledsoe, like many others, has made the move from city hall to the state capitol. The former member of the Lexington City Council is now serving in the State Senate. The first four days of the 2023 legislative session are in the books. Mays Bledsoe said it’s a different scene.
“You’re not just thinking about one city or one county. I’m representing four now, so just the volume of perspective is different and what people are bringing to the table and what you are representing is exceptionally bigger than the previous. It’s obviously a partisan environment and so working in a caucus and working together on policy is definitely different,” said Mays Bledsoe.
