Brownback Cuts $44M From Schools In Budget Move
Gov Sam Brownback used executive power to order $445 million in budget cuts to public universities and K-12 schools amid tax revenue shortfalls. Senate passed a rescission bill 24 to 13 sending it to Brownback who aims to sign, as House already did. Critics say the action shifts deficit burden to students while supporters say it keeps the budget in the black. The plan includes 2 percent cuts to the Regents system and 15 percent to K-12, with potential reversal if equalization aid savings materialize.
