Bill > HJR14

This joint resolution designates a specific section of United States Route 42 in Jefferson County, Kentucky, as the "Representative Bob DeWeese Memorial Highway." A joint resolution is a type of legislative measure passed by both houses of a state legislature, similar to a bill, but often used for specific purposes like designations or expressions of sentiment rather than creating new laws. The resolution honors Bobby "Bob" Miller DeWeese, a distinguished physician and a long-serving member of the Kentucky House of Representatives for 24 years, representing the 48th District and serving as Republican Caucus Chairman for 14 years. The designation, which will be marked with appropriate signage by the Transportation Cabinet within 30 days of the resolution's effective date, covers the stretch of highway from its intersection with Mockingbird Valley Road to the Jefferson/Oldham County line. This memorial highway designation is intended as a tangible public recognition of Representative DeWeese's extraordinary life and legacy of public service.
