This resolution would direct Kentucky's Legislative Research Commission to bring back a task force focused on how the state prepares for, responds to, and recovers from natural disasters. The task force would study topics like flood control, infrastructure resilience, and emergency planning, then submit recommendations by December 1, 2026. It does not create new law on its own but sets the stage for future legislative action based on the task force's findings. Who it may affect: Kentuckians in areas prone to natural disasters such as flooding, as well as local governments and emergency management officials.
