California weighs impact of second school tax ruling
California weighs the Minnesota judge Miles Lord ruling upholding Serrano style funding as unconstitutional. The California Supreme Court previously found the funding system discriminates by wealth, while Minnesota residents seek to align education spending with equal protection standards. Sanford Gruskin says the Minnesota decision could aid Serrano supporters. Berkeley attorney John Coons calls the development promising for equity in school funding.

Harmer seeks tax relief plan in Sacramento debate
Senator John Harmer, Republican chair, pushes a $716 million tax relief proposal amid stalled talks with Democrats and the Reagan administration. The plan adds a penny to the sales tax, targets homeowners, funds schools, and would raise revenue in current and future fiscal years. Critics note no relief for seniors or renters, while Assembly Republicans discuss a separate mini plan to cover a deficit.

Abortion bill killed in California Senate committee
The surviving of two five bill packages to limit therapeutic abortions in California was quietly killed Wednesday by the Senate Health and Welfare Committee. Assemblyman Robert Burke's measure would have prohibited a doctor who recommended an abortion from serving on the hospital committee that screens abortion applications. Committee members would be prevented from performing the operation in cases they reviewed.
