Coalition seeks repeal of Kansas tax cuts
A coalition of Kansas education, transportation, early-childhood and tax policy groups urged lawmakers to repeal the 29 percent top income tax rate cut and tax on business owners. They cited a $228 million revenue gap over 15 months and warned current measures fail to fix long-term fiscal stability. Annie McKay of the Kansas Center for Economic Growth called for a plan restoring financial stability and investment in the state’s future.
