Reagan tax relief bill gains surprise Senate vote
Ronald Reagan's 842 million tax relief plan wins a 4-2 Senate Revenue and Taxation Committee vote with Democrat Holmdahl crossing party lines to support the measure. The bill would delay a June one cent gas tax increase and offer a 20 percent across the board rebate on 1974 state income taxes, amid concerns about surplus spending and potential future tax hikes. Lagomarsino predicts possible passage in Finance but a tougher fight in the Assembly where Democrats hold a stronger majority.

Reagan insists election could proceed without legislative funding
Governor Ronald Reagan says a special election on his tax limitation proposal can be held next November even if the legislature withholds funds. Assembly Speaker Moretti suggests delaying funding would trigger a court fight, arguing the cost to taxpayers would reach about ten million dollars and that municipalities could charge the state under a late law, while Reagan contends the election would occur regardless and local governments might seek reimbursement in court.
