Kansas Governor Laura Kelly is calling for a new program to improve the state’s roads and bridges and has urged state lawmaker to approve a bipartisan Medicaid expansion plan. In her Annual State of the State Address Wednesday, the Democratic Governor warned the Republican controlled Legislature that she is likely to veto the income tax cuts that GOP Lawmakers are pursuing. Kelly promised her own tax cuts but signaled that they will be relatively modest initiatives dealing with the sales tax on groceries and property taxes. Kelly called for a new transportation program to follow one the state is winding down.
