Subject: Preventing another outbreak of coronavirus in KY prisons

Governor Beshear, 

Thank you for taking significant steps to reduce the spread of the novel coronavirus in Kentucky prisons. I urge you to continue your bold leadership to protect incarcerated Kentuckians, corrections employees, and the communities those employees call home from the coronavirus. Corrections officials must test all people in state prisons for COVID-19 infection and release medically vulnerable people.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
