KANSAS LEGISLATURE
Bill will help finance third year of the Margin of Excellence
Committee OKs cigarette tax
TOPEKA — The House Taxation Committee yesterday approved a cigarette tax bill that would restore $12 million for the third year of the Margin of Excellence.

But if the bill is passed by the House in its current form, the Margin money would be accompanied by a 50 percent increase in the wholesale liuor tax.
The bill would increase the tax on a pack of cigarettes by 5 cents. The tax on other tobacco products would be increased 5 percent.
The Senate approved the bill earlier in the session. The bill would create the State Board of Regents Margin of Excellence Fund. Revenues raised by the additional taxWORK fund and fund for the Margin.
The Margin is the Board of Regents three-year plan to bring the total
Some representatives reluctantly supported earmarking the funds for the Margin and the idea of increasing taxes this session.
"Very frankly, I'm not very much disposed to a tax increase this year," said State Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Olathe. "If it is not earmarked, I'm not going to vote for it."
An amendment to eliminate ear-marking the funds was defeated.
"I've always had a problem with labeling sin taxes for education," said State Rep. Marvin Smith, R-Topeka.
A later amendment approved by the House committee added another "sin" tax to the bill.

State Rep. Harold Guldner, R-Syracuse, introduced an amendment to increase the wholesale liquor tax 50
"the complaint you'll probably hear is that it cut back on sales, and if it did, good," he said. "I would like to call it a users' fee."
Money raised by the liquor tax would be devoted to drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in the state and the state general fund.
State Rep. Betty Jo Charlton, D-Lawrence, said the alcohol tax addition could help the cigarette tax pass the House. The alcohol tax would restore some money to the budgets of other agencies involved in rehabilitation programs cut from the Social and Rehabilitation Services budget. The Regents would gain financing for higher education.
Charilton said the nature of the taxes also could aid in the passage of the bill.

Both abortion camps oppose bill
By Rod Griffin
TOPEKA — Pro-choice and antiabortion forces agreed yesterday that a bill, which would make abortions illegal after the 22nd week of pregnancy, should not pass.
Kansan stan writer
The Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee had hearings on the bill yesterday. The only advocate to testify was a special assistant to Gov. Mike Hayden, who proposed the legislation.
Scott Morgan, special assistant to the governor, said state law allowed abortion on demand from conception to delivery.
"The governor does not consider that appropriate state policy," he said.
saund State Sen, Dick Bond, R-Overland
Park, questioned the ability of the state to specify 22 weeks as the point of viability.
An amendment produced by a subcommittee would combine the language of the bill with another abortion bill introduced by State Sen. Wint Winter Jr., R-Lawrence.
"We're playing doctor or God or something here when we say 22 weeks," he said.
winter's bill would leave the decision of viability to the attending physician. By combining the bills, the 22nd-week provision would be eliminated.
Would the appl user Pro-choice lobbyists argued that viability was difficult to determine, and that the decision should be made privately by the woman and her attending physician.
If the woman's health was endangered by the pregnancy, there was significant evidence of a genetic defect or the pregnancy was caused by rape or incest, Hayden's bill
would not apply.
"I viability is a vague and indeterminent concept," said Beth Powers, representing the Kansas Choice Alliance.
Anti-abortion activists said the bill was weaker than state law and would accomplish nothing. If it were enacted, the laws would be repealed.
"Present law requires that abortions be performed in hospitals," said Pat Goodson, "representative of the American law is repealed, will allow abortions to be performed outside of hospitals up to the point of delivery."
