Abstract

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly's veto of tax cut legislation was narrowly upheld in the Senate, falling short of the required two-thirds majority vote. The legislation, House Bill 2036, aimed to make changes to income, sales, and property taxes, resulting in an estimated reduction of over $1.5 billion in funds over the next three fiscal years. Gov. Kelly vetoed the bill, expressing concerns about the potential impact on the state's fiscal stability. The House had previously voted to override the veto, but the Senate vote did not reach the necessary threshold. [Extracted from the article]
