"Nearly all restrictions have been lifted in the Commonwealth, restaurants are allowed at full capacity again, but the Capitol and Capitol Annex remain closed because of security concerns.

"In response to a question at a news conference last week, Gov. Andy Beshear said 'a full Capitol re-opening' would occur on July 1, but would include some changes – which his administration has yet to share.

"'We saw on January the 6th that we need to have certain security in place, and the legislature in their budget, budgeted for additional security based on a Capitol re-opening. Those funds don't open up until July the 1st,' Beshear said.

"Gov. Beshear said there would be 'new and different rules' surrounding capacity in the Capitol and Capitol Annex. There will also be new rules on where citizens are allowed to congregate."
