When asked if the relationship between Governor Beshear and the Republican leadership in the Kentucky General Assembly will be different in 2024 compared to 2023, Senate President Robert Stivers said quote, “it could be.” GOP leaders have been critical of the governor for failing to meet with them at various times. Stivers said he and his Republican colleagues would be open to meeting weekly with the governor.
“We know that we will not agree on everything. You don’t agree on everything with parents, or your children, or your spouse. But, you don’t throw them out of the house cause you disagree with them on some things. But I think that would be beneficial to the overall process,” said Stivers.
