We would like you all to join us in welcoming a brand new chapter to Kentucky Citizens for Democracy, Grayson County Citizens for Democracy!
Grayson County has decided to take up the fight against the horrendous conditions that exist at their Detention Center as a result of county officials purposely overcrowding the facility with immigration prisoners, many of whom are women, to profit from this legalized form of human trafficking.
They have a courageous group of citizens who have banded together to tackle this issue head-on, and we are proud to have them as part of our organization!
