AN ACT relating to fish and wildlife.
HB 486 updates Kentucky's fish and wildlife law by replacing gendered language (e.g., "he or she") with gender-neutral terms in KRS 150.023, which governs the Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Commission. The bill directly affects the commission members and staff by modernizing references to their roles in meeting schedules, committee operations, and administrative duties. This is a procedural change with no impact on wildlife management policies or funding, solely updating the law's language to be inclusive.
