Kansas Revenue Upswing Fails to Close Yearly Gap
February revenues beat lower projections by 68.5 million with individual income taxes up 18 percent and retail taxes higher by 3.9 million from a year earlier. A roughly 281 million deficit remains, prompting debates on borrowing, spending cuts, and tax policy ahead of budget finalization. Kansas leaders weigh higher tobacco and alcohol taxes, highway fund shifts, and pension money moves as options. Brownback vetoes a tax overhaul, while lawmakers argue one month cannot resolve long term fiscal policy.
