Kansas tax reform debate moves forward at Capitol
Quiet family homes advocate Arly Allen testifies on Senate Bill 400, urging limits on unrelated tenants in single family Lawrence homes as lawmakers debate a sweeping tax policy proposal.

House Republicans argue the plan will spur economic development.
