In this Dec. 8, 2015, file photo, Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin speaks to the spectators gathered on the steps of the Kentucky Capitol following his public swearing in ceremony, in Frankfort, Ky. Bevin ordered the state to prepare new marriage licenses that do not include the names of county clerks in an attempt to protect the religious beliefs of clerk Kim Davis and other local elected officials. It was one of five executive orders he issued Tuesday, Dec. 22, 2015, the first of his administration, that mostly revised or suspended recent actions by former Democratic Gov. Steve Beshear.
