Reagan finalizes tax reform plan as legislature returns
Gov Ronald Reagan moves toward unveiling his tax reform package as California legislators resume session after Easter. The plan reportedly raises income tax and lowers county school property taxes funded by state money, excludes withholding and a food sales tax, and broadens the sales tax to more items while keeping the 5 cent rate. Republicans gain ground in both houses with new senate member John A Nejedly and GOP leadership planning an eight bill package.
