State treasurer withholds backing from Brownback loan plan
Kansas State Treasurer Ron Estes told House lawmakers he does not endorse Gov. Sam Brownback's plan to borrow more than 300 million of state funds from a long term investment pool to cover the current budget shortfall. Estes termed his stance neutral, while budget officials called the idea a reluctant best option among bad choices. The plan would let the Pooled Money Investment Board loan about 317 million to the state for seven years with no interest, and requires legislative action by month’s end to proceed.
