The Frankfort LINK: NKU Political Professor Ryan Salzman provides analysis on 2023 legislative session
On Wednesday, the legislature convenes for the last two days of the 2023 legislatures session.
They adjourned on March 16 for the 10 day veto period, where the governor vetoed multiple bills including the controversial Senate BIll 150, which will ban gender-affirming care for children.
The legislature will spend its last two days overriding any of the governor’s vetoes, and potentially could pass sports betting or medical cannabis legislation.
On this week’s episode we talked with Ryan Salzman, a political science professor at Northern Kentucky University and Bellevue City Councilman.
