Brownback outlines plan to spur growth in Kansas
Governor Brownback unveils a plan to expand expensing for business investments and create a Governor's Council of Economic Advisors. The council will include Cabinet secretaries for labor, commerce, revenue and agriculture and will pursue a broad policy to leverage Kansas strengths in agriculture, aviation and biosciences. A five year income tax rebate for residents relocating to counties with double digit population declines since 2000 is proposed, alongside greater latitude for expensing capital investments. Budget constraints prevent elimination of corporate income taxes or a sales tax cut this year.
