Labor backs Kansas income tax amendment for state voters
Kansas City October 22 Labor unions and unorganized workers in Kansas should back the income tax amendment says Robert G. Craig chairman of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers legislative board. He argues a graduated tax with exemptions would be fairer than a flat tax and would relieve the heavy burden of property taxes on labor and farmers. He cites Wisconsin as a model where income tax reduces property taxes and costs little to collect. He urges labor to vote yes in November.
