Kansas Governor Calls Special Session to Resolve Tax Cut Dispute

Governor Laura Kelly aims for bipartisan agreement on sustainable tax cuts after vetoing multiple GOP proposals.

Special legislative session set to begin on June 18 to address tax cuts.
Governor Kelly vetoed three Republican tax cut plans, citing concerns over fiscal sustainability.
Both parties agree on eliminating taxes on Social Security benefits and reducing property taxes for schools.
The vetoed bill included a $1.45 billion tax cut package over three years, which Kelly deemed too costly.
All Kansas Senate and House seats are up for election, adding pressure for lawmakers to reach a compromise.
