Businessman Craig Greenberg s bid for Louisville mayor got a boost Friday when he scored the endorsement of Louisville Metro Council President David James, who recently suspended his own campaign and is now out of the election for good. The hardest part was getting out of the race, James said as he stood alongside his one-time rival that morning in downtown Louisville. But endorsing Craig was the easy part because we share the same values.
James backing is yet another boon for Greenberg, whose campaign has had a couple other reasons to celebrate lately.
He not only has James in his corner, but he also has the support of former Metro Councilwoman Barbara Sexton Smith, who was seen as a potential mayoral candidate but became Greenberg s campaign chair instead.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. On June 11, just 13 weeks after Breonna Taylor had been shot dead by Louisville police, her mother stood on the steps of Louisville Metro Hall to praise the city s passage of Breonna s Law.
The ordinance banning no-knock search warrants was a testament to her daughter s agenda to save lives as an ER tech who dreamed of becoming a nurse, Tamika Palmer told a crowd of supporters. I knew she was destined for greatness, she said, her smile beaming. She s showing it. She s showing it.
In the eight months since, versions of Breonna s Law, have been proposed in cities and states across the U.S. from Wisconsin to New Mexico, and from Columbus, Ohio, to Pomona, California.
