TOPEKA, Kan. (KAKE) – Kansas Governor Laura Kelly and Republican leaders have finally come to an agreement on a tax cut plan after months of disagreement.

Republican leaders who helped craft the plan said they believe it will help save Kansans money.

“This is going to be great because we’re going to have income tax relief, we’re going to have Social Security tax relief, we’re going to have property tax relief,” said House Speaker Dan Hawkins, a Wichita Republican.

The proposed tax plan would reduce Kansas to two tax brackets. Currently, the state has three. Hawkins said that would mean the lowest tax bracket would essentially go to zero, meaning there would be no income tax if you were in the lowest bracket or if you’re a married couple making less than $30,000 a year.

“We’re going to have a zero payment section for low-income people, who right now are paying maybe $300, $400, even $500 a year, so this will mean a lot to them,” Hawkins said.

The plan would also completely eliminate taxes on Social Security income. Senate President Ty Masterson, an Andover Republican, said the plan would help all Kansans save money.

“Every homeowner will get a property tax relief and then every income tax payer will get a relief,” Masterson said.

The agreement came after a months-long battle to reach the plan, after Governor Kelly vetoed a similar Republican-backed plan in April as too aggressive.

“Legislation leaders and I have reached an agreement on a tax cut package that will be sent to the House and Senate during the upcoming special session. This agreement will provide Kansans with significant, long-overdue tax relief while preserving our state’s ability to invest in our state’s future. This agreement is not without its drawbacks — moving our income tax structure from three tiers to two tiers will limit the amount of property tax relief we can provide to Kansans. However, it meets the affordability criteria I proposed. Therefore, if the Legislature passes this negotiated agreement, I intend to sign it.”

Hard numbers on how much the measure would save taxpayers are expected to be released on Monday, and the plan is set to be presented and voted on at a special legislative session on Tuesday. Masterson said he doesn’t expect the session to drag on for long periods of time.

“The Senate will take it up first, send it to the House, the House will take it up, pass it and it’s done,” he said.
