Infrastructure
At a debate with his District 11 opponent, Larry Hujo, on September 15, 2014, Kramer commented on the issue of infrastructure, saying, "We have roads that are in desperate need of repair. We have properties that are owned by Metro Louisville that are not very well taken care of. It is the product of the deferred maintenance for a number of years."[6]
Minimum wage
At the same debate, Kramer also commented on the issue of raising Louisville's minimum wage, saying, "If you’re the only city east of the Rocky Mountains that’s considered a minimum wage for your city, that doesn’t play well when say you want a company to move into town. And that’s not because they’re bringing minimum wage jobs. These are folks who are bringing good paying jobs to Louisville, but no other city is talking about regulating business at the level you’re talking about."[6]
