NEWTON, Kan. — Kansas plans to invest the nearly $85 million the state received in the federal coronavirus relief funds for infrastructure programs and services in every county, leaving no part of the state behind.
Gov. Laura Kelly said Thursday that in deciding how to best invest the money it received, the state also decided on an approach that would invest the maximum amount of dollars into the economy in the least amount of time.
It also is targeting economic opportunities in communities that have been hardest hit during the pandemic.
