SB 247 Kentucky Senate · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT relating to agriculture.

SB 247 amends Kentucky's agricultural statute KRS 246.040 to replace gendered terms like "he or she" with gender-neutral language. The bill directly affects the description of the Commissioner of Agriculture's role in the state code. It makes no substantive policy changes but updates official references to be inclusive, changing phrases such as "keep his or her office" to neutral wording. This is a procedural language update with no impact on agricultural programs or regulations.
