Heather A. Ryan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heather A. Ryan of Paducah is a self-described Democratic activist, has no primary opposition and will face Ed Whitfield in the Kentucky general Congressional election.[1]

Ryan, a Navy veteran and former movie theater manager, launched into the news in January 2008. On January 15, she protested a visit by Mitch McConnell to the non-profit theater where she worked. The theater was raising funds for an expansion and some would potentially come from McConnell. Three days later, the theater's board of directors told her to stay quiet about politics while running the theater. After questioning the request, she was fired.[2]
