A call for transparency in the General Assembly

Senate Bill 40 has been introduced to the state Senate.  This bill requires quasi-governmental agencies that receive state funding to post financial/spending information online and be subject to the Kentucky Open Records Act.  These agencies include the Kentucky League of Cites and the Kentucky Association of Counties.  The Herald-Leader reported on the bill here.

Transparency is the first step toward accountability.
