Shrewder Reform Drive Faces Modest Path in 1994
Health Secretary Donna Shalala said the Clinton administration will pursue a more modest, strategic set of reforms next year after public opposition to the sweeping health plan. She stressed no government-run system and emphasized prioritizing early, targeted actions. A separate verdict awarded $8.8 million to a former White House official who blamed Tylenol for liver failure. Johnson & Johnson plans an appeal amid competing explanations. In California, Cabrillo district official Garrett Redmond proposes abolishing homework, noting district students and families face heavy burdens as a school board hearing looms. In New York, Raul Julia remains hospitalized in a coma four days after a stroke, his condition listed as guarded by his agent.
