Package of Benefits Bills Signed to Aid Working People
California Governor Brown signed a 14.7 million package of unemployment and disability benefits aimed at workers. The plan raises weekly disability benefits from 85 to 115 dollars for off the job injuries, and increases unemployment payments by 1 to 3 dollars per week for about two thirds of covered workers. It imposes a 5 percent payroll tax on employers and expands coverage with merit rating changes affecting some financial institutions. About 5,000 workers will move to unemployment funds, and the bill liberalizes eligibility and extends program rights while removing the 320 ceiling on penalties for wage reporting failures.

California restricts smut laws with broader definition
Gov. Brown signed a reform measure that tightens penalties for mass distribution of smut while defining obscenity as content with potential redeeming social value. First offenses rise to 360 days in prison and $10,000, with higher fines and prison terms for subsequent offenses and harsher penalties for material involving minors. Also bans tie in sales and imposes fines up to $2,000 and a year in jail for first minor offenses, escalating for later offenses. The bill, proposed by Assembly Speaker Ralph Brown, marks the first change in over a century.
