by Olivia Krauth, Queer Kentucky | Kentucky’s Only LGBTQ+ Newsroom March 30, 2026 As Kentucky’s 2026 legislative session winds down, Queer Kentucky will be keeping y’all updated throughout all of it.  Lawmakers will meet Tuesday and Wednesday to pass any final legislation before the veto per iod begins Thursday — a two-week-ish period where Gov. Andy Beshear will be able to sort through all of the bills on his desk and decide what to do with them.  Basically all of this year’s anti-LGBTQ+ legislation is dead, which means it can’t pass this session, but Frankfort can be sneaky, so we’ll still be watching. (Plus, they have a ton of important stuff to get through over the next two days, including the next two-year state budget.)  This story will be regularly updated over the next few days with any important happenings or interesting tidbits, so bookmark it, check back frequently and share it with your friends so they can do the same.  Keep an eye on Queer Kentucky’s social media pages for any major news, and feel free to contact lead politics writer Olivia Krauth at [email protected] with any questions or thoughts you have about bills or the legislative session. You can also give us your thoughts in our 2026 politics survey. New posts will appear below this line, with the newest stuff being first.
