A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION adjourning the 2026 Regular Session of the General Assembly sine die.
Summary
SCR 292 is a concurrent resolution that formally adjourns the Kentucky General Assembly’s 2026 Regular Session sine die on Wednesday, April 15, 2026. It states that once the Senate and House adjourn on that date, they will not reconvene until the next regular session begins on Tuesday, January 5, 2027, unless the Governor calls an extraordinary session sooner.
The resolution is procedural rather than substantive: it does not create, amend, or repeal any policy, but instead sets the end point for the legislative session and the period during which the General Assembly will be out of regular session. Its practical effect is to mark the close of the 2026 session and establish the default timeline for the legislature’s next meeting.
Impact
SCR 292 does not directly affect the Kentucky Revised Statutes or alter any rights, duties, or programs. Its impact is institutional, governing the calendar and operation of the General Assembly by ending the 2026 regular session and limiting further legislative action until the 2027 session or a special session called by the Governor. The resolution affects legislators, the executive branch’s ability to call an extraordinary session, and the timing of any remaining legislative business.
Sentiment
The available record suggests the resolution is routine and noncontroversial. There are no committee transcripts, recorded objections, or vote details indicating disagreement, and the measure’s purpose is purely administrative. In that context, the general sentiment appears neutral to supportive, reflecting standard legislative practice for adjourning a session.
Contention
No notable points of contention are evident in the available materials. Because the resolution only sets the adjournment date and does not address policy issues, there is no indication of disagreement over substantive legislation, session length, or procedural authority. Any potential concern would be limited to the timing of adjournment or the possibility of needing an extraordinary session, but no such dispute is reflected in the record provided.
