AGP Executive Report

Last update: 41 minutes ago

Local Tax Update: Barren County will keep its property tax rate at 12.2 cents per $100 of assessed value after the fiscal court voted down a proposed bump to 12.4 cents, while also setting the motor vehicle and watercraft rate at 15.3 cents. Immigration Enforcement Oversight: Lawmakers are pushing DHS to cancel its $16.7 million contract for electric shock gloves used by ICE, raising questions about tracking and accountability. Tech & Privacy: Indiana’s BMV is moving toward mobile driver’s licenses, with supporters citing convenience and critics warning about privacy and tracking risks. Kentucky Business & Jobs: Astemo Americas announced a $112 million expansion in Berea, adding 114 jobs, as it ramps up hybrid EV motor production. Consumer Protection: The FTC and 22 states, including Kentucky, sued Amazon over alleged “hidden surcharges” in ad pricing, claiming an artificial bidding setup inflated costs for advertisers. Public Safety/Health: HealthFirst Bluegrass is tied to a data breach investigation after a vendor security incident exposed patients’ Social Security numbers and health records. State Culture & Community: Kentucky’s ABC will auction 70 confiscated bourbon bottles online starting Sept. 15, with winners picking up in Frankfort during “Bourbon on the Banks.”
