Governor Kelly Calls for $450 Tax Rebate to Kansas Resident Taxpayers

TOPEKA – Governor Kelly announced yesterday her proposal to spend Kansas’ one-time budget surplus on a tax rebate of $450 for individuals and $900 for married taxpayers filing jointly.

The proposal for a one-time tax rebate provides relief to all Kansas resident taxpayers without breaking the bank or jeopardizing funds for our public schools.

Providing a rebate would put Kansas well within the mainstream of other state efforts to offer tax relief. In 2022, states including Florida, Indiana, and Idaho offered tax rebates.

This proposal would have to be approved by the legislature.
