Immigration debate clouds Kansas farm bill voting rift
Senate judiciary members weigh immigration provisions as the farm bill progresses. Kansas lawmakers split on the House version, with Reps Moran and Tiahrt opposing due to changes including crop insurance cuts and a tax on foreign firms, while Rep Boyda supports it as a solid, if imperfect, framework. Brownback and Roberts echo concern over tax increases and insurance support as the Senate drafts its version.
