The Latest: Kentucky GOP headquarters vandalized
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — The Latest on teacher walkouts and a rally in Kentucky (all times local):
12:30 p.m.
A sign denoting the "Mitch McConnell Building" at the Republican Party of Kentucky headquarters has been vandalized with red spray paint.
The state party's headquarters is just down the street from the state Capitol, where thousands of teachers, many of them wearing red T-shirts, marched Friday in support of public education. They are demanding lawmakers override Republican Gov. Matt Bevin's veto of a two-year operating budget and an accompanying tax increase that fuels record education spending.
Party spokesman Tres Watson tweeted a photo of the sign covered in red spray paint.
