AFP-Kansas: Special Session will Cost More than $1,000,000 but with Governor Kelly it’s ‘My way or the Highway’
Topeka, KS—Americans for Prosperity-Kansas (AFP-KS) is strongly opposing talks of a special session in the legislature to further tax reform after Governor Laura Kelly vetoed yet another compromise bill.
AFP-KS State Director, Liz Patton, issued the following statement:
“Why go into a costly and unnecessary special session when Governor Kelly can sign a bipartisan tax compromise bill? As the Speaker noted, 133 of 165 Kansas legislators backed this compromise bill while working across party lines leaving Governor Kelly clean out of excuses.
“The Governor can’t keep her word to deliver results for hardworking Kansans and now she wants a special session at the growing price tag of $1,000,000. It’s irresponsible and punishing to Kansans to ignore bipartisan tax relief and try to push for more wasteful spending.”
