Gov. Bevin to hold signing ceremony on foster children’s bill

FRANKFORT, Ky. (WTVQ) – On Wednesday, Gov. Matt Bevin is scheduled to sign a foster children’s ‘bill of rights’ into law.

The governor is scheduled to join other officials this afternoon for the ceremonial signing.

The bill comes after an overhaul of the state’s child welfare system last year.

Bevin is scheduled to host the signing ceremony at 2 p.m. in Frankfort.

Gov. Bevin will also sign two other recently enacted laws passed by the 2019 General Assembly. This includes Senate Bill 4 which deals with increasing campaign finance transparency as well as House Bill 254 regarding freedom of speech at public postsecondary education institutions.
