Kansas ended February 2026 with total tax collections of $506.3 million. That is $58.4 million, or 10.3%, below the state’s estimate and 7.6% lower than February 2025.

“February’s report reflects that revenues collected were down nearly $59 million, at the same time the Legislature is building their budget,” Governor Laura Kelly said. “The Legislature should keep in mind the structural imbalance their past budget created and look to my budget for a path to rectify the unsustainable imbalance over time.”
