We at The Future of Eastern Kentucky have started a petition to send to Frankfort and DC Demanding them to bring jobs to Eastern,KY So each and every family will have a fair chance to achieve a better living. We are poverty stricken from the impact of job loss here; we want a better life for families in this area. We ask each and every one of you to sign our petition and have your voice heard!
