Breakfast will begin at 8:30am and will be held at the the CNB Lake Cumberland Farmers Market in Downtown Somerset.
Serving Kentucky’s 5th Congressional District since 1981, Hal Rogers has been elected to 22 consecutive terms representing the people of southern and eastern Kentucky.

On March 18, 2022, he became Dean of the U.S. House of Representatives, as the longest-serving Member in the House. His longevity of service is proof that Congressman Rogers focuses on economic development, job creation, fighting illegal drug use, preserving the natural treasures of Appalachia, avidly listening to his constituents, advocating for the interests of the region where he was raised.
