Legislative bill overview

SR 22 is a commemorative resolution introduced in the Kentucky Senate to adjourn in honor of Brian Jay Hatt. The resolution serves as a formal legislative tribute, typically adopted when a notable individual passes away or to recognize significant service.

Why is this important

While symbolic rather than substantive legislation, these resolutions create an official record of respect and can provide closure for families and colleagues.
