Kansas GOP strategizes to defy a court ruling on school funding while Gov. Sebelius plans a June 22 special session. Lawmakers split over the court's authority as a cost study called for an $853 million increase, with $285 million by July 1, and potential local tax impacts. Senate Dems criticize the rhetoric as inappropriate while urging cautious leadership from the governor.
