➡️ UPDATE: event now occurring in DSU room 2124

What exactly is on the Kentucky ballot this November?

Join us October 14 for a discussion with Kentucky State Senator Chris McDaniel about the proposed constitutional amendment on this year’s ballot.

The amendment would limit the Governor’s ability to grant pardons of commuters sentenced beginning 60 days before a gubernatorial election and continuing until the Governor is sworn into office for the new term.

Come learn more about the amendment, the Kentucky Constitution, and what this proposed change could mean for the Governor’s clemency powers.
