From LJWorld.com:
The Kansas House on Wednesday voted to cut the pay of elected and appointed state officials by 5 percent.
“This amendment sends the message that we are serious” about cutting spending, said Rep. Melvin Neufeld, R-Ingalls, who introduced the proposal.
The measure was added to a budget bill that attempts to close the books on the current fiscal year and ratifies many of Gov. Mark Parkinson’s earlier announced budget cuts. Much bigger budget battles lie ahead.
