From: Kansas Governor Laura KellyGovernor Laura Kelly Advocates for "Axing Your Taxes" Plan to Provide Financial Relief to Kansans
“I am calling on legislators of both parties to support my plan and provide much-needed financial relief to Kansas families and child care facilities. At a time when prices are on the rise, no family should still be paying state sales taxes on basic necessities like groceries and diapers. This plan creates real savings for all Kansans, including those who need it most.”
