Consumer Protection Bill Killed by Senate
In Sacramento the Senate defeated a major consumer protection bill 13 to 18. Author Sen. Anthony Beilenson said unit pricing would let shoppers compare costs and save up to 1 billion yearly in California groceries. Opponents argued such pricing would raise overall food costs and that housewives can compute on their own.

Southern California Gas Tax Revenue Hike Approved
The Assembly Transportation Committee approved a second version of legislation to boost Southern California to 60 percent of highway funds, up from 55, with Northern California at 40 percent. The bill by Sen. Walsh was adopted on a split vote and sent to the floor as a safety valve for the Mills measure. It aims to allocate more gas tax revenue to the south should Mills’ bill fail. A second brief notes the Peru crash victim, Stanford sophomore Flint Lathrop Stickney, 19, identified among 41 Americans killed in the Peruvian airline crash.
