SB 287 Kentucky Senate · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT relating to the State Fair Board.

SB 287 amends Kentucky law (KRS 247.210) to replace gendered language ("he or she") with gender-neutral terms in a rule prohibiting State Fair Board members or department officials from being exhibitors at state fairs while holding office. This change directly affects current and future members of the State Fair Board and department officials who serve in their official capacities. The bill updates the statute to ensure the rule applies equally regardless of gender, without altering the underlying prohibition. As a procedural language update, it does not create new restrictions or impact other aspects of the law.
