Summary:
The committee held public hearings on six bills. SB 6081 would restrict public disclosure of sex designation change records held by the Department of Licensing and Department of Health, with the sponsor and most testimony arguing it is a privacy and safety measure for transgender people; one opponent argued it would reduce transparency and could affect law enforcement and other uses. SB 5902 would update voter notification and address-change procedures, including allowing more electronic notice options and reducing mailed notices for some automatic voter registration updates; county auditors and the Secretary of State supported it as a cost-saving, efficiency measure, while some testimony opposed it. SB 6034 would formally establish the Governor’s Office on Indian Affairs in statute as a cabinet-level agency and expand its duties; the sponsor and tribal representatives supported it as a technical fix and affirmation of tribal-state relations, with no opposition noted in testimony.
SB 6035 would require regular county auditor meetings with tribes on election access and authorize an electronic ballot return portal for certain voters, including military, overseas, disabled, and some tribal voters. Supporters said it would improve access and coordination, while the Secretary of State and several others opposed the electronic portal portion over cybersecurity and secret-ballot concerns, and some witnesses urged limiting the bill to tribal outreach and drop boxes. SB 5892 would centralize requests for voter registration database records through the Secretary of State and make unauthorized disclosure of protected voter data a felony; the Secretary of State, former Secretary of State Sam Reed, and several voting-rights groups supported it as a privacy and anti-retaliation measure, while opponents argued it would hinder federal review of voter rolls and election transparency. SB 5973 would ban pay-per-signature compensation for initiative and referendum signature gathering, require 1,000 supporting signatures before a ballot title is issued, and create a citizen-enforcement mechanism for violations; supporters said it would reduce fraud, misleading tactics, and “ballot title shopping,” while opponents called it a barrier to direct democracy and said existing enforcement tools are sufficient. No votes were taken; each bill was heard and the hearings were closed.

House Budget Review Sub. on General Government (2-12-26)

Meeting Start 00:00:00
Kentucky Board of Emergency Medical Services (KBEMS) 00:00:53
Approval of Minutes 00:23:37, 958, all
Summary:
The Kentucky Board of EMS presented an additional budget request focused on grant funding for local EMS agencies, not agency operations. Officials said the board has 13 full-time staff after losing employees in the 2022 transition back to state government, and that the request would be a 100% pass-through to providers. They initially described two requests totaling $12.91 million: $10.8 million for the EMS block grant and $2.1 million for workforce education tied to House Bill 484, but later said they would withdraw the $2.1 million request because rural health transformation funding appears likely to cover those education needs.
Most of the testimony explained why the EMS block grant should be increased. The board said the grant began in 1980 at about $1.2 million and has remained largely unchanged while EMS costs have risen sharply. They cited higher prices for ambulances, stretchers, and cardiac monitors, along with increased labor and reimbursement pressures. Board members emphasized that modern EMS now provides much more advanced care in the field, especially in rural areas, and argued that equipment such as 12-lead cardiac monitors can significantly improve patient outcomes. They said the current grant provides about $10,000 per county, while the request would raise funding to about $100,000 per county and increase the per-capita amount from roughly 26 cents to $2.60.
Members also discussed whether the block grant statute should be reformed to target need more directly. Board officials said they had considered making the grant more competitive, but decided against it for now because many counties rely on the annual funding and shifting money away from some areas would create hardship. In response to questions, they said Kentucky has about 160 class one EMS agencies providing 911 response across 120 counties, and that grant awards in recent years reached 91 counties, then 108, then 110 counties. They also highlighted the cost and safety benefits of power loading systems for stretchers, saying they can reduce back injuries and help retain EMS workers, but are often unaffordable for smaller departments.
No votes were taken on the budget request during the hearing. After the testimony and questions, the committee approved the minutes from the prior meeting by motion and second, with no opposition, and then adjourned.
