AN ACT relating to government accountability.

HB 586 updates committee procedure language in Kentucky law to be gender-neutral. It amends KRS 6.925 to replace "chair[chairman]" with neutral terms when describing committee leadership roles during testimony and record-keeping processes. The bill directly affects how state legislative committees conduct hearings and document proceedings, without changing substantive policy or impacting specific groups. This is a procedural language update with no new requirements or financial implications.
