LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Kentucky Sen. Perry Clark, D-37, announced he will not seek re-election.
Clark said that following the 2020 legislative session he plans to spend more time with his family, especially his grandchildren.
"After 25 plus years in the Kentucky legislature, I believe the time has come to start the next chapter and pass the torch on to the next generation, Clark said in a statement.
