Kentucky's bill would require certain state contractors to sign a certification that they do not and will not for the duration of the contract engage in a "politically sensitive economic boycott." Broad in scope, the bill specifically mentions a prohibition for contractors to boycott businesses related to fossil fuels, petrochemicals, agriculture, firearms and social media information or internet provider. The law would not apply to contracts valued at less than $100,000 or to companies that have 10 or fewer employees. The law would also require the state to create a blacklist of companies that boycott any of the above-listed sectors, ordering the state's Board of Investment to divest from blacklisted entities and refuse investment in them.

Kentucky's bill would prohibit the state from entering into a contract with a company unless the company submits a written certification that it does not have any "practice, policy, guidance, or directive that discriminates against a firearm entity or firearm trade association" and will not adopt such a practice for the duration of the contract. The law would not apply to contracts valued at less than $100,000 or to companies that have 10 or fewer employees.
