Income Based Tuition Proposed by Assembly Speaker Monagan
Sacramento Assembly Speaker Robert Monagan proposed a graduated tuition plan based on income for UC Berkeley and the state colleges. The plan would raise operating funds by about 35 to 37 million dollars, with exemptions for families or individuals earning under 10,000 dollars per year. It would apply to seven or more course units, include a tiered fee up to 798 dollars for incomes above 45,001, and aim to expand campus space for disadvantaged students while not increasing the burden on lower-middle income families.

Bill Would Juggle Tax to Aid Cities
SACRAMENTO API Tas Assembly Transportation Committee chairman has introduced legislation trading a one year sales tax for part of the gasoline levy to fund local transit. Foran proposes reducing gas tax to 8 cents while applying the 5 percent sales tax to gasoline purchases, claiming net relief to motorists and freeing funds for counties and cities to repair flood damaged roads or build new projects. He anticipates opposition in the Senate and from key leaders who argue highway needs are too urgent to cut gas tax now.
