Show Notes
Kansas lawmakers passed a property tax bill, giving voters power to protest budget hikes, but failed to cap year-over-year property value jumps. The bill, passed by narrow margins, allows voters to roll back budgets if ten percent of registered voters sign a petition. Critics worry it empowers a noisy minority, while supporters see it as a check on runaway spending. The constitutional amendment capping property value jumps fell short due to GOP infighting. The bill now heads to Democratic Governor Laura Kelly, with lawmakers reconvening for a veto session in two weeks.
