A narrow escape
By a 61-61 vote, the Kansas House this morning derailed a plan by conservative Republicans to fund deferred maintenance at Regents' institutions and community colleges.
The plan would have required Sedgwick, Butler, Cowley and Reno Counties to levy an additional sales tax to cover deferred maintenance at state-owned institutions in their counties.
That's the good news. The bad news is, are there really 61 education-hating state representatives in the House?
