SB153

AN ACT relating to the prevention of harmful and fraudulent practices.

Complete·4/8/26

Kentucky SB153 amends laws to prevent harmful and fraudulent practices by contractors in disaster areas.

Kentucky SB153 amends the Kentucky Revised Statutes to strengthen regulations on contractors during states of emergency. The bill mandates contractors to register with the Attorney General and prohibits them from soliciting business in disaster areas for 90 days without approval. It also restricts contractors from misrepresenting damages or offering incentives tied to insurance claims. Violations carry fines and imprisonment. The Attorney General gains jurisdiction to investigate and prosecute these violations, and affected parties can seek civil remedies.
