Senate Eyes New Sunflower Plant Bill At Topeka
The Kansas Senate moves to debate a fourth bill aiding Sunflower Electric Power Corp. in building two coal plants near Holcomb. It mirrors prior measures restricting the secretary of health and environment from CO2 regulation while seeking an air permit for a 3.6 billion dollar project. Senate action could prompt a veto session as House members weigh a veto override and final adjournment nears.

Compromise reached on Kansas immigration bill
Negotiators from the Kansas House and Senate reached a bipartisan agreement on immigration policy after five hours of talks. The revised measure drops the E Verify mandate for now and removes license revocation provisions, while keeping penalties for coerced labor, trafficking and false documents. Bail rules were softened with judicial discretion to set bail amounts in most cases.
