Tax bill veto override shows tense Senate debate
The Kansas Senate debated a tax bill with veteran lawmakers split on retroactive penalties and budget impact. Senator Caryn Tyson opposed the measure citing Middle class tax hikes while Governor Brownback vetoed it as an assault on pocketbooks. The House later OVERRIDED the veto while Senate upheld it, leaving the bill technically dead though Finch predicts a revised version.
