Public TV and radio fear budget cuts for Kansas stations
Public TV and radio carried Gov. Brownback’s State of the State but the budget proposal for 2012 omits state funding for station grants. Radio Kansas officials warn loss of state support would cut federal matching funds and jeopardize equipment purchases, with projected 2012 operations from the state at about 110000 to 120000 dollars. The governor cites general fund pressures and urges private funding.

Brownback budget pushes familiar Kansas reform ideas
Gov. Sam Brownback proposes a 6 percent overall spending cut for the 2012 budget year at 13.9 billion, a $232 per student base aid reduction for schools, and elimination or overhaul of several agencies including the Health Policy Authority and Arts Commission. He aims to shift Medicaid functions to the Health and Environment Department and pursue long‑standing conservative aims to shrink state government and cut administrative costs.
