KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Kansas Governor Laura Kelly vowed on Thursday to veto the latest tax cut package from lawmakers, but still no word on when.
But in a 4 The People interview airing Sunday, the deciding vote in sustaining her earlier veto may take a different position in a special session.
The Kansas House and Senate approved and sent the governor a revised tax package in the early morning hours of the final day of the wrap up session. It retained the two-tiered tax bracket system, but reduced the cuts.
It's cheaper than earlier plans she vetoed, and Kansas City, Kansas, Senator David Haley says that has him considering voting to override this time.
"I will say that I'm very much thinking about it with this tax package. I just don't want to drag this out. We're already going into a special session. We've all gotten our appraisals at home, and we've gotten higher taxes across the board. People are really demanding relief," Sen. Haley told FOX4.
Senator Haley also talks about his bid to have a Wyandotte County "Port Authority" included as part of a stadium STAR bonds package. Watch our entire conversation Sunday morning at 10, right after FOX News Sunday.
