âTonight, I address both a state and a country that are hurting,â Gov. Beshear said during his address. âHurting from a pandemic that has swept across the world, upended our economy and taken the lives of our loved ones. Hurting from attacks on our democracy that yesterday rose to the level of a direct attack on the United States Capitol.â
