Since hearings in early March, the League has been involved in discussions with legislators and other interested parties about the composition of the final legislation that will be considered. The Senate passed Senate Sub. for HB 2088 on a 24‑16 vote. During this debate, Sen. Melcher offered two amendments, and struck all exemptions for economic development programs (abatements, TIFs, rural housing incentive districts, neighborhood revitalization areas, etc.). This bill reflected some compromises by interested parties, but left several areas of concern. The League and the Kansas Association of Counties encouraged two amendments. One would have exempted increases in health care benefits and pension http://lkm.org/leaguenews/2016/12.pdf 1/5 6/20/2016 League News obligations from the tax lid; this was defeated on a voice vote. The other amendment exempted law enforcement, fire protection and emergency medical services from the tax lid. This amendment was adopted 22‑17.

    A Legislative Report for Kansas Children's Service League

    A Legislative Report for Kansas Children’s Service League 2013 Legislative Session: Week Five (February 11 - 13) Raffles – Legal or Not?....Raffles and their legality in Kansas have been under discussion this week in the Statehouse. Some contend they are legal as long as you don’t require the purchase of a ticket to participate -- participants are given the opportunity to donate to win a prize, but, if they chose, can also receive a ticket just by asking. Others believe that raffles are illegal regardless of donation language. Because of this ambiguity, some organizations have opted to avoid raffles altogether and not chance a violation of the law. Because many of these groups look to raffles to fund part of their expenses, raise money for a particular need or help someone in a crisis situation, two legislators are making an effort to better define raffles and how groups can legally hold a raffle in Kansas. Rep. Brian Weber, R-Dodge City, introduced a Constitutional Amendment, HCR 5009, in the House. That bill was referred to the House Federal and State Affairs and scheduled for hearing this week, but the committee chair expressed concern that the language in the bill was too broad and could potentially impact other areas of gaming in the state. The hearing was cancelled. At the same time, Sen. Jacob LaTurner, R-Pittsburg, introduced SB 148 which says, as amended, “Any nonprofit corporation may conduct a raffle if the fair market value of the raffle item is not greater than $5,000.” Additionally, “The gross proceeds shall be used solely for charitable or community betterment purposes, awarding of prizes and expenses.

    1751 JOURNAL OF THE SENATE Journal of the Senate FIRST DAY SENATE CHAMBER, TOPEKA, KANSAS Monday, January 11, 2016, 2:30 p.m In accordance with the provisions of the Constitution of the State of Kansas and by the virtue of her office as President of the Senate, President Susan Wagle declared the 2016 Senate to be in session. President Wagle welcomed Reverend Cecil T. Washington, who will again serve as the Senate Chaplain. He delivered the following invocation: Heavenly Father, We come again to the beginning of another session. And as Moses told Joshua to deliver the laws to Your people in Deuteronomy 31:7, and that he was to be of good courage, because You’d never fail nor forsake them, remind us of the same. As we all labor together…the Senators…the supporting staff and all who work these halls, to deliver laws to Your people, remind us afresh of Your gracious, governing, guiding presence. Like the chef, who brings just the right mixture of ingredients together, with just the right temperature, do that with us. During this session, as laws are being prepared, give us just the right mix of ingredients, from both sides of the aisle. And help us maintain just the right temperature in our attitudes and actions. Like the chef, who tops off and completes a fine meal, top off and complete the work that You’re going to accomplish in these halls. When all is said and done, and the people have consumed…even devoured the results of this session, help us all to recognize, celebrate and applaud You, as the Head Chef.
