This legislation today was being unnecessarily rushed without an opportunity for review.\n\n\u201cI promised the people of Kentucky that I would read every bill before voting for or against it. I couldn\u2019t in good conscience today support this significant piece of legislation without being given an opportunity to examine it closely\u201d said Senator Paul.\n\nCLICK HERE TO WATCH SEN.
