Kentucky Family Legislative Scorecard

The Kentucky Family Legislative Scorecard is an educational project of The Family Foundation of Kentucky and is the most comprehensive pro-family legislative scorecard in the Commonwealth. The most recent scorecard is based on Kentucky’s 2023 Legislative Session and measures how state legislators performed on core issues of family, life, religious freedom, human sexuality, and human dignity. It compiles important legislative activity, including votes and bill sponsorships.

The scorecard is a critical educational and accountability tool for Kentuckians to see where legislators stood on the values that matter to them. For the 2023 Scorecard, legislators that scored 90% and above are recognized as Kentucky Family Champions.
