On Monday, Governor Laura Kelly released her three-part ‘Axing Your Taxes’ plan to save Kansans more than $500 million over the next three years. The comprehensive plan includes a push to immediately ‘axe the tax’ on groceries and eliminate the state sales tax on diapers and feminine hygiene products. The creation of an annual four-day sales zero percent sales tax holiday on school supplies, personal computers, instructional materials, and art supplies, every August, and, tax cuts for retirees so no Kansan making under $100,000 pays full taxes on social security.
Kelly says by cutting taxes on groceries and diapers, school supplies, and social security, this plan will put money back in Kansans’ pockets and create real savings for those who need it most.
