Bevin calls special legislative session for 8pmET By Daniel Desrochers, Lexington Herald-Leader In a surprise move Monday, Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin called a special legislative session to deal with the state's struggling pension systems. He made the announcement just before 4pmET Monday, saying the session would begin four hours later at 8pmET "I am going to use the powers that have been granted to me to call the legislature into special session that will be effective tonight at eight o'clock," Bevin said in a brief statement. "They will be coming in." The call comes just four days after the Kentucky Supreme Court struck down Senate Bill 151, the legislature's controversial pension overhaul bill that passed in the final days of the 2018 legislative session. The court ruled Republican legislative leaders erred by not giving the pension bill the constitutionally required three public readings in the Senate and House chambers before passing it last March.
