Mike Hayden's proposal for income tax cuts, a measure that Democrats would close the door on any property tax relief measures. Senate President Bud Burke, R-Leaward, predicted Democrats would attempt to torpedo Hayden's proposal to return an income tax windfall through reduced income tax rates. "The debate Monday will be politically oriented," Burke predicted. Hayden has proposed returning $78.9 million of the windfall through reduced income tax rates for all Kansas income taxpayers. The windfall is additional money the state receives as a result of 1986 changes in the federal tax code. Senate Democrats conducted caucuses Tuesday to map out their strategy on the issue and discuss what amendments to offer. Much of the discussion among minority party members focused on property tax relief and increasing state aid to local school districts. "It if it were up to me, and I were benevolent king. I would give it all back in tax relief," said Sen. Phil Martin. D-Pittsburgh. Martin earlier warned that property tax increases were going to become a major issue. were going to keep lawmakers are waiting to see what impact statewide property reappraisal will have on the property tax burden, but some commercial and industrial property owners are expected to see major increases in property values used for tax purposes. "Property taxes are on everyone's mind as a result of reappraisal," Burke said. Burke said. Democrats also discussed offering an amendment that would reintroduce the income tax deduction Kansans once received for federal taxes paid. The Legislature repealed that deduction last year as part of a tax revision measure endorsed by the governor. Certain GOP lawmakers, including Burke, stronely objected to the elimination of federal deductibility during last year's debate, while most Democrats supported it. Burke said an amendment reinstating federal deductibility, if offered on the Senate floor, would cloud the issue of returning the windfall. "I would hope that we understand that federal deductibility is not part of the issue of returning the wind-fall." Burke said. While the tax debate will rage Monday, on Tuesday many Kansans will focus their attention on the old Supreme Court Chamber in the State-house, where two days of hearings will be conducted on capital punishment. Hayden has proposed that the death penalty be reinstated for first-degree murder, killings that occur during major drug operations and the murder of criminal justice officials. Testimony in the two-day hearing is likely to be emotionally charged. The bill is before the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee, with Sen. Ed Reilly, R-Leavenworth, as chairman. Reilly is a strong death penalty supporter.
