That's according to an updated fiscal analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Research Commission, or LRC.
The group looked at Senate Bill ten, which is sponsored by Senate Budget Chairman Chris McDaniel.
Newly released estimates suggest the bill would save local government nearly $20 million.
That's up from the initial estimates of nearly 14 million.
It's also expected to save state government close to $2 million.
Senate Bill ten passed the full Senate last week.
If it also passes the House, it would then appear on November's ballot as a constitutional amendment for Kentucky voters to decide.
