In Their Words

What they have said, on the record

“I'm an Andy Barr Republican, not a Mitch McConnell Republican or a Rand Paul Republican. I'm my own man, and I'll fight every day to deliver for all Kentuckians.”
Kentucky Republican US Senate candidate Andy Barr on immigration, national debtMay 20, 2026 · Press · Lexington Herald-Leader · source
“I share Sen. Paul's concern about the national debt. I ran for Congress to save America from bankruptcy, and I'm still fighting to do it. That's why I voted for the Big Beautiful Bill, which is also the largest deficit reduction bill in U.S. history, cutting $400 billion from the deficit over a 10-year period.”
Kentucky Republican US Senate candidate Andy Barr on immigration, national debtMay 20, 2026 · Press · Lexington Herald-Leader · source
“President Trump endorsed me because he knows I've been with him all the way. All the way to build the wall, secure the border, and deport all criminal illegals. I successfully defended his authority to build the wall in federal court during his first term. I voted to triple ICE agents and provide a historic investment in border security through the Big Beautiful Bill. I'm leading a Constitutional Amendment proposal to ban birthright citizenship for the children of illegals. And I'll continue my work in the Senate. I'm honored to have the endorsement of President Trump, DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin, and the National Border Patrol Council. I am the border security candidate in this race.”
Kentucky Republican US Senate candidate Andy Barr on immigration, national debtMay 20, 2026 · Press · Lexington Herald-Leader · source
“I do not agree with Mr. Cameron on a no cash bail system. I've never supported a no cash bail system … [that] results in the premature release of criminals back on the streets. I disagree with that. I don't agree with his position to reduce criminal penalties for drug offenses.”
Cameron, Barr spar from a distance in Paducah as Kentucky's Senate Republican primary nearsMay 8, 2026 · Press · WKMS · source
“It's important that we have a U.S. Senator who can hit the ground running on day one, who doesn't need on the job training … I know this job because I'm doing this job”
