Tabernacle Baptist Church, Nicholasville, Kentucky

Attorney General Daniel Cameron has asked to join a lawsuit, filed by a Baptist Church in Nicholasville, Kentucky, against Gov. Andy Beshear's executive order banning mass gatherings during the pandemic. 

A U.S. District judge ruled the injunctive relief granted to Tabernacle Baptist Church "may extend statewide."

Beshear's Saturday update comes after U.S. District Judge Gregory F. Van Tatenhove of Frankfort ruled that Kentucky churches can hold in-person services beginning Sunday, despite the governor's executive order prohibiting mass gatherings.
