Kansas sales tax hike aims to protect education funding
Kansas moves to raise the sales tax by one penny on groceries and other items through July 2013 to stave off cuts in a 13.7 billion budget. Governor Parkinson expects to sign the measure, the first general tax increase since 2002, amid GOP resistance and liberal backlash. The change shifts Kansas toward higher tax levels nationally, with lawmakers stressing budget needs and education funding while opponents call it a liberal decision in a Republican-leaning state.
