Rise Up Kansas tax plan targets LLCs and 2012 cuts
The movement called Rise Up Kansas proposes to close the LLC loophole and reverse parts of the 2012 Brownback tax cuts. It would cut the sales tax on food, restore a 3rd income bracket, and raise motor fuel taxes to fund highways. Projections show $820 million annually from income taxes and $197 million from fuel taxes, with debate over immediate shortfalls and a pending school finance case.
