3 months ago 8

Gov. Andy Beshear has reiterated his commitment to transparency once again, releasing his 2023 tax returns and 2023 Statement of Financial Disclosure.

For the eighth consecutive year, the Governor has released his tax returns and called on all other constitutional officers and legislative leaders to do the same. So far, Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman is the only other statewide elected official to release their tax returns in the last eight years.

“Throughout my entire time in elected office, I have committed to being open and transparent with Kentuckians and to earn their trust,” said Gov. Beshear. “Our public officials need to earn the public’s trust by showing them that their only interests are what’s best for the people of the commonwealth. There was a time when this was expected. Now it is the rare exception.”
