Kentucky's budget is the subject of tonight's Kentucky Tonight

It's no secret that the Commonwealth of Kentucky has a real mess on its hands when it comes to plugging all the holes in the state's budget for the next two years. What services should be cut? Which should be spared? 

Gov. Steve Beshear has already submitted his proposal to the General Assembly, and four men serving in Frankfort who will help decide what the state's next step will be are scheduled to appear with host Bill Goodman on KET's Kentucky Tonight this evening at 7 p.m. CT.

Goodman's guests will be:

• State Sen. Bob Leeper (I-Paducah), chair of the Senate Appropriations and Revenue Committee
• State Rep. Rick Rand (D-Bedford), chair of the House Appropriations and Revenue Committee
• State Rep. Bob DeWeese (R-Louisville), vice chair of the House Appropriations and Revenue Committee
• State Sen. Ray Jones (D-Pikeville), member of the Senate Appropriations and Revenue Committee
