Kansas special session nears end with impeachment vote
Kansas legislature on the final day of the special session faced one major emergency move. The House approved capital punishment for first degree murder with limits, while bills on municipal bonds for public works and cigarette tax enforcement stalled. A compromise public works bill would let towns issue bonds for utility projects with voter and governing body approval under two thirds rules. The Senate calendar was largely cleared but many House bills awaited action as adjournment loomed.
