State revenue receipts exceed projections by 0.7 percent
Kansas reports 11 months ending Wednesday show revenue collections $26.9 million above estimates, a 0.7 percent surplus in the $4.5 billion general fund. Officials caution that this positive sign may not reflect final fiscal year totals, with June 30 as the end date and Gov. Graves awaiting year-end results. The largest overage comes from individual income taxes at $1.66 billion, $28.4 million above projections.

Kansas AG backs ruling vouchers illegal under state constitution
Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall issued a nonbinding legal opinion at Rep. Henry Helgerson's request stating that school vouchers would violate two provisions of the state constitution by compelling support for religion and allowing religious sects control over public education funds. The opinion notes federal legality but warns state constitution constraints and expects proposals to reappear next year. Helgerson supports parental choice within public schools while opponents question consistency with state practices and existing religious funding. Voucher bills cited include HB 2462 2504 and 295 with online full text available.
