[Nfbk] Kentucky House Bill 10

[John Glisson]

Hi Melanie!!!

 

I'm proud of you for discovering this current legislation!!!

 

To answer your question(s), I cannot without researching the proposed
legislation and review all the relmafications .

 

On the surface, it sounds to be a good incentive for hiring individuals with
disabilities . I'll look into it with Susan, for I've been unaware of the
Bill until now .

PS. I do not believe it is directly related to the 'Fair Wages .'
legislation of which you mention. j

The above text is copied directly from the KY Legislative Resource Center
website. Is this at all related to the federal Fair Wages for Workers with
Disabilities Act? Is this something we should be calling our representatives
about? 

 

Regards,

Melanie
