He argues current remedies fail to deter and cites required proof of citizenship and photo ID as insufficient. Critics warn shift risks politicization and resource waste while noting rare occurrences and potential inadvertent errors.

Revenue shortfall widens in Kansas January tax drops
Kansas revenue plunged in January, falling 7 million below expectations and pushing the year’s shortfall to over 278 million. Department officials blamed weaker Christmas sales and higher tax refunds, while critics argued Brownback’s tax cuts worsened the gap. The shortfall foreshadows continued budget strains and potential transfers to balance next year’s 456 million gap.
