Kansas cuts eyed as lawmakers fight $400 million gap
Kansas legislators struggle to resolve a 400 million dollar budget hole for 2016 with stalled tax plan talks. Potential 6.2 percent across the board cuts threaten districts including Syracuse 260,633 and Ulysses 629,160 while officials weigh how to tally and publish cut figures amid budget negotiations.
