Bill Would Rescind Reagan Medi-Cal Cut

The Reagan administration would face cutting 200000 Medi Cal beneficiaries if the legislature demands, while the Assembly Health Committee backs a Burton bill to override the cuts. The measure moves to Ways and Means for another hearing, arguing the program was in the black before the December reductions.

Statewide Property Tax to Share School Costs Urged

The California State Board of Education urged the Legislature to adopt a statewide property tax reallocating funds from wealthy areas to poorer school districts. The plan, opposed by Sen. Milton Marks, would likely raise property taxes in about 10 percent of districts and reduce local taxing power, while boosting state aid to poorer districts. The board asked for drafts of legislation based on the advisory committee report and named Henry Gunderson as president and John Ford as vice president. Huey P. Newton was ordered to appear March 12 for a manslaughter trial date in the 1967 Oakland police killing.

Open primary bills seek split reform to dodge veto

In Sacramento Sen. Alfred Alquist proposes separate Republican and Democratic primary reform bills to give California voters a choice of presidential candidates. He argues Reagan could veto the Republican version yet still allow a Democratic open primary, preserving voter voices for all parties. The move follows Reagan’s vetoes of prior open primary attempts. A separate item notes Assembly sponsor Jack Fenton introducing a $60 million employer financed workers compensation increase for disabled workers, citing lagging benefits and inflation.

Campaign Practices Bill Seeks Permanent California Commission

In Sacramento Senator George Deukmejian of Long Beach proposed a bill to create a seven member permanent fair campaign practices commission with power to fine up to 3000 for violations. The panel would be a full government agency appointed by the governor and fundable by an added filing fee on candidates. Also proposed Friday was a 20 billion bond issue for expanding UC medical facilities by Senator Stephen Teale of West Point.
