House Rejects Raising Kansas Minimum Wage Policy

The Kansas House voted 72 to 50 against raising the state minimum wage from 2.65 per hour. Opponents argued federal parity would harm workers while supporters said higher pay reduces reliance on public aid. The measure would have let the State Finance Council set the wage to federal levels, 5.15, leaving Kansas with the lowest rate among states.

Lawmakers deadlock on home rule for school boards

In Topeka the Kansas House rejected a revived bill to grant local school boards home rule and add funding for districts with declining enrollment. A motion to reconsider was defeated 66-56. The measure promised board autonomy to transact district business and alter funding by counting one fifth of 1994 enrollment, potentially diverting $17.7 million but reducing the state per pupil base by $30.71.
