Los Angeles County Supervisor James Hayes will lead the campaign to pass Proposition 1 on the November ballot. He says the measure would curb spiraling taxes and save state taxpayers 162 million dollars in its first year, while distinguishing it from the defeated Watson Tax Initiative.
Sacramento reports that Republican State Treasurer Ivy Baker Priest endorsed Gov. Reagan's Prop 1 on the November ballot calling it carefully designed. The governor's office also refused a Democratic request to publicly debate Reagan on the proposition, led by Senate Democratic Leader George Moscone.
Assembly Speaker Rob Moretti stated on Monday that Gov. Reagan could avoid enacting a tax plan, arguing no necessity for new levies amid current fiscal conditions. The comments reflect opposition within the leadership to the proposed budget measures.
Governor Reagan vetoed a bill requiring the Public Utilities Commission to audit large utilities every three years and smaller ones every five, saying a pending pilot study will show if regular audits are effective. He cited authority to cut tax expenditures and criticized proposed measures as unnecessary.
Gov Ronald Reagan announces his press secretary Edwin G Gray will take a six week leave to coordinate publicity for the tax ceiling initiative and counter opposition. Gray has served since 1967 and will return after the November 6 election. Moretti says Prop 1 restrictions were not taken earlier due to reason and political considerations.
