Kentucky’s 2027 regular session opens Tuesday, Jan. 5 and ends sine die Tuesday, March 30, according to the 2027 Regular Session Calendar the Legislative Research Commission (LRC) posted Sept. 10, 2026. The calendar, as read on Nov. 12, 2026, numbers 30 legislative days. The table below gives each with its weekday, and a free printable tracker keeps the milestones in order.
The session is split in two. Part I convenes Jan. 5 and holds four legislative days, Tuesday to Friday, Jan. 5-8. Part II convenes Tuesday, Feb. 2. The calendar’s legend marks the stretch between them as a break between Part I and Part II and says bill drafts may be requested during it for introduction when Part II convenes.

How many legislative days does the 2027 session have?
Thirty. By our count, Part I has 4 (January), and February has 16, days 5 to 20. March has 10, days 21 to 30. Days 5 to 28 run Tuesday to Friday for six straight weeks, Feb. 2 to March 12. No Monday is a legislative day, and the calendar shows the three holidays in the session window (Jan. 18, Feb. 15 and March 26) without a day number.
The break between the two parts runs from Saturday, Jan. 9 to Monday, Feb. 1, which is 24 days by our count.
What are the Kentucky veto days in March 2027?
After the two Concurrence days on March 11 and 12, the calendar marks Saturday, March 13, Monday to Saturday, March 15-20, and Monday to Wednesday, March 22-24 as veto days. That is 10 marked days, and none carries a legislative day number. The General Assembly returns Thursday, March 25 (day 29), skips Good Friday on March 26 and ends sine die Tuesday, March 30 (day 30). The calendar does not explain the veto label beyond the word itself.
When is the last day for Kentucky bills?
The calendar prints Tuesday, Feb. 16 (day 13) as the last day for Senate bills and Wednesday, Feb. 17 (day 14) as the last day for House bills. Monday, Feb. 15 is President’s Day and not a legislative day. The calendar gives no other bill deadline, and this page states none.
