HB 711 Kentucky House · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT relating to military affairs.

HB 711 amends Kentucky law to replace gendered language ("his or her") with gender-neutral terms in descriptions of the Civil Air Patrol unit within the Department of Military Affairs. Specifically, it updates two sections (KRS 36.230(1) and (2)) to refer to the commanding officer without specifying gender. The bill directly affects how the Kentucky wing of the Civil Air Patrol is formally described in state law. This is a procedural language update with no new policies or direct impacts beyond standardizing legal terminology.
