LOUISVILLE, KY â A bipartisan group of Kentucky State Representatives prefiled several pro-LGBTQ bills for the 2021 Kentucky General Assembly - including the first Statewide Fairness Law and the HEROES Act, which would restore state veterans benefits to some LGBTQ ex-service members.Â

The laws were prefiled separately as
Bill Request 990 by Rep. Patti Minter (D-Bowling Green) and
Bill Request 836 by Rep. Lisa Willner (D-Louisville) and Rep. Kim Banta (R-Ft. Mitchell), who makes history as the first House Republican to take the lead on LGBTQ discrimination protections.
