Sebelius proposes stop gap measures for Kansas budget 2004
Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius unveils a 2004 budget plan to balance by 400 million in accounting maneuvers and one time fixes. The package favors expanded gaming at tracks and no new taxes while tapping 175 million in bonds funded by tobacco settlement money for highway projects. Critics label the plan fiscally risky as lawmakers assess revenue gaps and potential tax changes.
