Get the Facts: If Beshear goes to Washington, what happens in Frankfort?
SUMMARY: Kentucky’s gubernatorial succession is outlined but vague in its details. If Governor Andy Beshear wins reelection, Lieutenant Governor Jacqueline Coleman would assume gubernatorial powers, though it’s unclear if she would be considered Governor or Acting Governor. Secretary of State Michael Adams interprets that she would be the Acting Governor, as the state constitution does not allow for a new Lieutenant Governor appointment while Coleman is in office. Historical precedent exists from 1974, and legal disputes are anticipated regarding whether a successor should be appointed or a special election held. The state constitution specifies elected officials serve four-year terms.

LIVE: Laurel County Sheriff's Department giving update on search for shooting suspect
SUMMARY: Kentucky’s income tax rate could drop from 4% to 3.5% due to a growing reserve fund exceeding $5 billion. However, the tax cut requires legislative approval in the 2025 session and would only take effect in 2026. Discussions continue regarding the impact of this reduction on average Kentuckians; Senator McDaniel argues it allows individuals to retain more of their earnings, while Senator Neil expresses concern about potential service funding deficits. He highlights the experience of Kansas, where similar tax policies led to economic challenges. The sustainability of low tax rates amidst inflation remains uncertain.
Kentucky is set for another half percent income tax cut by 2026. GOP Budget Chair Chris McDaniel and Sen. Gerald Neal discuss how much money it will save Kentuckians long term and if the state can still operate on the reduced revenue
