House divided over Kansas school funding plan standoff
Kansans face a clash in the legislature as the House and Senate battle over funding to meet a Supreme Court order. The Senate approved 161 million for school aid with property tax relief, while the House trimmed it to 11 million, failing a full House vote. Debates over constitutional limits on court power and party fault lines dominated a tense special session, with lawmakers urged to return to committee or risk prolonging the session. Social service groups warned against cuts to pay for any boost.
