Senate and House near school finance deal in Kansas
Negotiators from the Senate and House reached a tentative school finance agreement in Topeka but Senate members delayed signing it. Key elements include a 32 to 34 mill statewide property tax levy over three years, other tax changes, and a plan to fund a state takeover of K-12 education with added transportation, vocational and bilingual education, along with a six day longer school year. Gov. Finney backs the compromise, making passage likely this afternoon.
