The state's drug woes have emerged as an issue in Kentucky's gubernatorial campaign, pitting General Cameron against incumbent Governor Andy Beshear.

Election Day is now just a little more than five weeks away.

Attorney General Cameron was in Scott County campaigning on Friday, where he talked about crime and education and again addressed his stance on abortion and whether he would sign off on a change to the state's abortion ban to allow exceptions for rape and incest.

If a criminal commits the ultimate act and murders one of our law enforcement officers, I think it's the responsible thing to do and we're going to offer legislation on this.

It's the responsible thing to do to make sure that we automatically seek the death penalty against that criminal.

And I say that knowing what happened right here in Scott County.

I know Sheriff Hampton just walked in the room.

Everyone's hard.

It was broken.

In fact, I kind of calmly lost his life and my office right now to seeking the death penalty against that murderer.

We need a new governor who's going to address violent crime.

I've got a plan to do so with putting a Kentucky State Police post in Louisville to address violent crime.

There, making sure that we have a carjacking statute and we're on few states in the nation that does not have a standalone carjacking statute.

And so, again, this is a strong plan that I put forward.

I'm 100% pro-life, and I support the Human Life Protection Act.

And as I've said repeatedly, if the wall was to need to be changed, I would sign those exceptions.

I've made that abundantly clear.

We need to increase the starting pay of our teachers to make sure that we restore discipline to the classroom and make sure all of our teachers are empowered to remove any disruptions.

In my existing classroom.

Now, tomorrow, we'll hear from Governor Andy Beshear, who is scheduled to unveil his infrastructure plan called Better Kentucky Beshears office says the plan will further support Kentucky families and boost economic development.
