LEXINGTON, Ky. — Kentucky lawmakers are heading into the final stretch of the 2026 legislative session, with the [General Assembly set to adjourn by midnight Wednesday](https://queerkentucky.com/kentucky-2026-legislative-session-close-live-blog/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=kentucky-2026-legislative-session-close-live-blog) after two days of final votes and potential gubernatorial veto overrides.

The Kentucky Senate will gavel in at 10 a.m. Tuesday, with both chambers working through Wednesday to pass any remaining bills and address any vetoes from Gov. Andy Beshear before the session officially ends. Lawmakers will handle last-minute legislative business during what is typically the busiest period of the year in Frankfort.

According to [Queer Kentucky, Kentucky's only LGBTQ+ newsroom](https://queerkentucky.com/), all of this year's anti-LGBTQ+ legislation has already failed to advance, marking a significant outcome for advocacy groups that have monitored bills throughout the session. The publication plans to provide live updates throughout the final two days of the session.

For residents seeking to stay informed on legislative developments, the [Fairness Campaign](https://www.fairness.org/) and [ACLU of Kentucky](https://www.aclu-ky.org/) are offering legislative alerts. The [Kentucky Educational Television](https://ket.org/live/) and the Legislative Research Commission also provide livestreams of all committee meetings and House and Senate proceedings, allowing constituents to monitor the final votes in real time.
