Boards & Commissions - KUDOs

After digging a bit deeper yesterday, we uncovered that SB 181 (sponsored by Dan Kelly and Ed Worley) filed in the 2009 regular session eliminated the boards and commissions that were targetted in HB 623 in 2006. Kudos to Senator Kelly, Senator Worley and the Beshear Finance Cabinet for taking this initial step.

We'd encourage Frankfort to build on this by taking on a comprehensive examination of the hundreds of Boards and Commissions that litter the KRS statutes. Our intuition tells us that many, if not most, are either no longer functioning or have outlived their usefulness.

Best to go ahead and wipe them off the books.
