General Assembly Reporters' Roundtable on Eastern Standard

WEKU

There was more than enough to talk about following an almost unprecedented long first week of the Kentucky General Assembly between reporters Adam Beam, Ronnie Ellis, Ryland Barton, and host John Hingsbergen.

The Kentucky General Assembly is on a planned break for now.  But last week’s flurry of activity was part of a short legislative session that marks the beginning of Republican control of state government for the first time ever in almost a century..

 

 

On this week’s Eastern Standard, a panel of reporters joins us for a roundtable on the General Assembly.
