A newly formed group in Missouri is warning of tax cuts next year in Kansas.
The group, Save Missouri Jobs, is pushing for state response to the tax cuts by advertising in western Missouri this week.
The advertisements highlight the changes approved in Kansas this year cutting individual state income tax rates and abolishing income taxes for specific types of businesses.
The TV commercial shows a young girl asking what would happen if Missouri jobs and businesses move to Kansas. She asks what will happen to Missouri’s tax base and who is going to pay her teacher.
Save Missouri Jobs spokesman Woody Cozad said Wednesday the economic development situation could get ugly for Missouri. He says the new group is not advocating for a particular plan.
