Legislature Rejects Brown Plan to Fund Two Prisons
Sacramento lawmakers refused to approve 62 million dollars for building two new prisons as part of the state budget. The budget committee cut the price tag and allowed UC to raise student fees this fall, while debating teacher and state employee pay raises and other line items. The panel also narrowed a proposal to boost student laboratory costs, triggering reactions from the US Student Lobby and Assembly sponsor Vasconcelos.
