SACRAMENTO AP Gov Reagan and Assembly Speaker Moretti head a bipartisan panel negotiating five sticking points in a large welfare reform package. They hope to avoid deadlock as the plan promises about 125 million dollars in annual state and county tax savings, with changes to eligibility, relatives’ responsibility, and a restructured grant schedule.
