Madisonville Lawyer Todd P'Pool Files To Run For Attorney General
KENTUCKY....
Madisonville lawyer, 37 year old Todd P'Pool filed candidacy papers Wednesday declaring his intent to run for the GOP nomination for attorney general in the May primary. P'Pool, who has been elected twice as Hopkins County attorney, says he would fight to protect the coal industry from burdensome regulations imposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. He said an EPA "power grab" also is hurting Kentucky farmers. He says he also would join attorneys general from other states to try to stop federal health care reforms. P'Pool, founder of the faith-based Western Kentucky Teen Challenge drug treatment program, says, if elected, he would crack down on illegal drugs.
