Hailing from Kentucky's 27th District, State Senator Steve West's favorite part of his job are the people he works with and the relationships he builds every day. The biggest thing he's learned during his time in office is that it's important to be a lifelong learner to help solve problems in an ever-changing world.
One thing West's district does better than anywhere else is support space science - the renowned space center at Morehead State University is one of just a few in the country where students collaborate with NASA experts to learn about the universe.
Three words that capture West's district are "bourbon, horses, and space." His favorite movies are war films like Saving Private Ryan.
