TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The presumed Democratic nominee for Kansas governor said Monday that if elected, he will pursue a big increase in education spending and a postponement of scheduled income tax cuts in an effort to improve the state economy.

Kansas House Minority Leader Paul Davis said he would freeze income tax policies in place where they were in January 2015, when he would take office if elected. The owners of 191,000 businesses would still be exempt from paying personal income taxes, but cuts in the state’s top income tax rate already scheduled for the next four years would be blocked, as would a myriad of other changes.
