Reagan Welfare Reform Plan Killed in California Senate
Sacramento Calif AP Gov Ronald Reagan’s welfare reform plan is killed by state Senate Democrats who back a rival measure. The Beilenson plan, largely Reagan language, aims to save millions but would raise taxes and expand open-end funding, complicating a $6.74 billion budget and a $203 million deficit. About 2.5 million Californians rely on welfare, with costs near $2.3 billion this year and projected to nearly $3 billion next year.
