Taxes and reapportionment loom as lawmakers rush week
In a holiday-shortened Sacramento week the Legislature aims to push major items before adjournment. The Senate may approve a half billion dollar tax package funding withholding starting Jan 1, while Assembly Democrats push a floor vote on reapportionment. The tax plan would close a 310 million revenue gap and fund building and inventory tax relief. The reapportionment plan, amended from the Senate remap, seeks to widen Democratic margins. Republicans attack it as a power grab and warn Reagan may veto if the plan stands.
