Senate and Assembly OK Congress redistricting plan
In Sacramento the Senate approved a congressional reapportionment plan 24 to 6, creating five new House seats including a Black district in south central Los Angeles. California will have 43 congressional seats after the 1972 elections, with two likely to Democrats, two to Republicans, and one to a third party. Assembly leaders also endorsed a parallel plan, while some Democrats protested its drawing of the 37th District.

California moves toward an all-star presidential primary with three bills. One would mimic Oregon's system for nationally designated contenders, with candidates unable to withdraw unless they swear they are not a candidate. Other measures let each party run its own open primary and override the other's choices. An additional hospital bill seeks to bar state hospital class action before July 1972.
