Are the days of Frankfort's closed-door budget meetings coming to an end?

The days of Kentucky's political bigwigs meeting behind closed doors with armed guards posted during critical budget discussions may be coming to an end. Sen. Damon Thayer, R-Georgetown, and Rep. Jim DeCesare, R-Rockfield, are filing legislation that would require online posting of Kentucky's checkbook in a searchable database.

I wrote about their proposals in a recent Bluegrass Beacon column.
