On September 25, 2025, Guthrie visited seniors in Bardstown to discuss recent changes to Medicaid.

Later that evening, Guthrie referenced his background as a West Point graduate while discussing his involvement with U.S. Service Academy nominations. In a post dated September 25, he stated, “As a graduate of West Point, it is an honor to have the privilege of playing a role in nominating future leaders to the United States military academies. Earlier this week I hosted my annual Service Academy Information Night to provide prospective applicants to U.S. Service”.
On September 26, Guthrie addressed concerns about Medicaid spending in Kentucky following a recent audit report. He posted, “Republicans passed the Working Families Tax Cuts to protect Medicaid for whom it was intended – our most vulnerable. Last week, an audit discovered $800 million in waste in Kentucky’s Democrat-run Medicaid system. Every dollar of waste is another dollar not going to those who”.
