A bill directing millions of dollars to those hardest hit in last month's deadly tornadoes is on its way to the governor's desk.
HB5 passed unanimously through both chambers and awaits Governor Beshear's signature to send $200 million to tornado relief efforts in western Kentucky.
$155 million would go towards rebuilding and reimbursing local governments.
$30 million is for schools to cover "wrap-around" services, including mental health counseling, transportation and more.
The final $15 million is earmarked for FEMA housing solutions.
