Coalition urges Brownback to keep Kansas sales tax rise
TOPERA A coalition of social service, education and health groups asked incoming Gov. Sam Brownback and the Legislature to reject moves to repeal the 1 cent state sales tax increase. They cited budget cuts since 2008 and warned repeal would worsen the shortfall and harm quality of life in education, infrastructure and safety. The group lists numerous associations and advocacy groups as members.
