Republicans are expected to retain control of the state senate but Democrats hold a narrow majority in the House, where Republicans hope to take control for the first time since 1920.
State legislators are scheduled to adjourn for the year on March 24th. Lawmakers will take a two week break beginning March 10th while Governor Beshear considers possible vetoes.
The legislature will meet for 30 legislative days instead of 60 because they don't have to pass a budget.
