Governor of Kansas waits until after election to tell citizens that massive debt, due to tax cuts to the wealthy, will require massive cuts to state.

Quote:
The state of Kansas will not have enough money to pay its bills through June unless it cuts $279 million in spending, according to updated revenue estimates.

Even the Republicans had enough of Brownback and endorsed a Democrat prior to the election. Unfortunately for them, Kansas stuck with Brownback. Enjoy your cuts!

Sounds like Kansas need to do something about it . Don't you have state senators and representative? Perhaps create a balanced budget law; do you think?

Would have helped if the Governor didn't hide this until after his reelection.

I seem to remember that obama did the same thing concerning obamacare and the criminal illegal alien executive orders he wants to do too.

This is how Republicans govern:

Quote:
A second bond rating agency has downgraded Kansas’ standing because of declining revenue following massive income tax cuts signed into law by Gov. Sam Brownback.
Quote:
The rating cut could lead to higher interest rates on state borrowing, ultimately costing taxpayers more money.
