Meet Kentucky’s SENATE Majority Floor Leader From Taylor - Max Wise

Where are you from: Campbellsville, KY

Family you’d like to mention: I have a wonderful wife, Dr. Heather Wise, and our four amazing children, Grayson, Jackson, Carter and McLean. My mother, Donna Wise, is the only athlete in Kentucky who holds four different Hall of Fame distinctions. She is a member of the Kentucky Athletic Hall of Fame, the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Womens’ Basketball Hall of Fame, Eastern Kentucky University Athletic Hall of Fame and the Campbellsville University Athletic Hall of Fame. Mom has been an athlete her whole life and has coached for 32 years. I’m incredibly grateful for her and the example she set for me and my kids.

Issues most important to you: Education and the economy.  Without a quality education as a foundation, you simply can’t grow your economy. 

Single most important/significant piece of legislation you sponsored/championed: Every piece of legislation I’ve passed has been significant to me, my constituents, and Kentucky.

Personal interests: I love college football and basketball, and really enjoy watching my children compete in their athletic activities, alongside my wife. I can also hang with the best karaoke singers out there!
