California voters reject school tax measures amid talk of fiscal chaos
State schools chief Wilson Riles warns that continued voter rejection of local school tax overrides could plunge districts into chaos unless state funded reform passes. He cites Sacramento approving an 88 cent override, Clovis approving a 5 million building bond and a 6.2 million state aid package, while many districts reject measures. The proposed fix would raise state aid by 400 million and levy a 3.75 per 100 property tax. Legislative sponsors include Sen. Albert Rodda and Assemblyman Leroy Greene. Martha Mitchell calls for abolition of the Supreme Court over busing ruling.
