With a new session and election year ahead, the ruling could reshape state leadership and schooling futures for about 25 percent of Kansas students.

Kansas Legislature Overturns Brownback Tax Plan
Don Hineman, Kansas House majority leader, asserts that 88 representatives and 27 senators across parties overrode Gov. Sam Brownback to restore fiscal balance. He argues the 2012 tax cuts caused deficits, school strain, and reduced Medicaid and highway funding, and that the new plan balances the budget while keeping taxes lower than pre-Brownback levels and restoring credits.
