Kansas tax forecast improves growth outlook and tax cuts debate
Kansas officials and economists released a brighter forecast predicting nearly 5 percent tax revenue growth for the next budget year. The update, which projects state revenue through June 2013 at just over $6 billion and 2013 taxes at $6.3 billion, comes as a new anti income tax group tours five cities to press for eliminating the tax. Governor Brownback and GOP allies push tax cuts, arguing growth will offset revenue loss. The administration also plans aid distribution changes for public schools and Medicaid, while forecasters warn of economic uncertainty.
