House approves cutting state funding of remedial courses

The bill, 68 to 55, moves to the Senate. KU offers one remedial course, intermediate algebra, with about 900 fall students. Action followed debate on the need for remedial math and college readiness, with votes by lawmakers from Lawrence, Eudora, Baldwin City, and Ark City.

Tax-cutting proposals spark Topeka budget debate panel work
A House Senate conference committee opened talks Tuesday on bipartisan tax cuts aimed at spurring Kansas growth. Leaders Rep. Richard Carlson and Sen. Les Donovan voiced cautious optimism as they seek a reconciled plan. Democrats warn tax cuts favor the wealthy while straining education and social services funding. The House and Senate proposals would cut nonwage income taxes for about 200000 businesses, alter the standard deduction, and shift sales tax on food or the Earned Income Tax Credit, with the plans differing on timing and revenue impact over the next three fiscal years.
