TOPEKA, Kan. (KPR) - Republican lawmakers appear headed for a confrontation with Kansas Democratic Governor Laura Kelly over tax cuts. With a growing budget surplus Kelly says the state can afford to cut some taxes. But in an interview with KPR's Jim McLean, she said the proposals that Republican leaders recently pushed through the Kansas Senate are too expensive.

The Kansas News Service is a collaboration of Kansas Public Radio, KCUR, KMUW and High Plains Public Radio. It reports on health, the many factors that influence it and their connection to public policy.
