Bill to ease marijuana penalties clears hurdle in Senate
California moves toward decriminalizing personal use marijuana with a bill by Sen. Moscone to treat possession of one ounce or less as an infraction and over one ounce as a misdemeanor. The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 7-3 along party lines, signaling likely passage by both houses before Gov. Brown. The measure faces a Finance Committee review next.

Beilenson Prescribes Contraceptives for Minors Without Parental Consent

Senator Anthony Beilenson says the change ends an inconsistency that kept many teenagers from avoiding unwanted pregnancies. He notes high teen abortion and illegitimate birth rates in 1973 as context.
