Topeka lawmakers discuss retroactive tax bill and budget
Legislators debated a bill similar to HB 2178 that would reduce taxes for low earners and still cut overall tax payments from 2012 levels. Rep Jennings noted a net long term reduction despite year over year increases, while critics cited retroactivity. Brownback urged continued work on a balanced budget as sessions resume. The next legislative coffee is March 18 with other dates in April and May.
