California Ecology Corps proposed by Governor Reagan
Governor Reagan announced a California Ecology Corps to protect the environment and employ conscientious objectors for two years on conservation work. Two centers will open July 1 with others to follow, offering room, board, clothing, and a $15 monthly stipend. The program aims to clear streams, heal heathes and parks, reforest, build fuel breaks, and serve as a disaster reserve. It seeks to inspire other states to follow California’s example.

The CTA fights tenure bills in California education clash
Calvertia Teachers Association urges members to oppose Assembly Bill 299 and SB 697, arguing the bills would end the superior court review of dismissals. They favor a state hearing with an expert panel, binding decisions for school boards, and added guidelines and evaluations to protect teachers. The dispute centers on protecting due process while allowing more swift dismissal actions.
