Senate committee weighs rollback of business tax breaks
Kansas lawmakers discussed reviving the passive business income tax to fill a nearly 600 million dollar budget shortfall. The plan would raise 65 million for the coming year and 115 million over two years, drawing criticism from business groups who warn the move may be premature. Legislators expect spending cuts alone won't close the gap. Brownback contemplates future tax adjustments and higher alcohol and tobacco taxes.
