Kansas House rejects bipartisan tax cut plan, leaving the future of tax relief uncertain.
The plan, a compromise between Governor Laura Kelly and GOP leaders, aimed to cut taxes by $1.4 billion over three years.
Critics argue the plan favored wealthy taxpayers and provided insufficient property tax cuts.
The rejection sends lawmakers back to the drawing board, with a new deal unlikely before their spring break.
