“The LGBTQ+ Victory Institute announced Tuesday that Kentucky state Rep. Keturah Herron [Leading with Conviction™ 2019] has been named the 2024 Tammy Baldwin Breakthrough Award winner in recognition of her political accomplishments and her status as a rising star in U.S. politics.
“The group, which supports LGBTQ+ elected officials by providing training and advocacy, said that Herron had been a ‘champion for the rights of youth, [the] marginalized and [for] justice…She has worked to pass impactful legislation like Breonna’s Law [an ordinance banning no-knock warrants] in her city and state, and has advocated for Kentucky youth and families involved in the justice and social services systems for more than a decade.'”
“Herron will receive the award at the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute’s International LGBTQ+ Leaders Conference this December in Washington, D.C.
“’Keturah is a shining example of the impact and power of representation, and very deserving of this honor,’ says Elliot Imse, executive director of LGBTQ+ Victory Institute. ‘Keturah is a dedicated public servant and leader, and this award is just a reflection of her work advocating for her communities and creating solutions for her constituents. Keturah is poised to become even more of a powerful force and voice for Kentuckians, and we are proud to recognize her tireless work.'”
