2025 General Assembly: KWA's February Legislative Update
On February 4, the Kentucky Generally Assembly re-convened in Frankfort for the second part of the 2025 legislative session, and the water started moving fast in the wrong direction---a flood of legislation threatens environmental protections Kentuckians rely on for clean water and air. Legislative targets threatening Kentucky’s residents and natural resources include:
- Senate Bill 89 removes all protections from wetlands, headwaters and groundwater. KWA continues to coordinate a defense against SB89 with a growing partnership.
- House Bill 137 limits evidence Kentucky can use to enforce the Clean Air Act, which KWA believes could easily be amended to threaten water.
