Burton calls Reagan Medi-Cal cuts a lie in Sacramento
Democratic Assemblyman John L Burton denounces Ronald Reagan as a liar over mandated Medi-Cal cuts. He sponsors a bill to rescind the cuts in the $1 billion program, opposed by the governor as the session opens. Burton argues the statute uses may not shall, while Reagan cites the 1868 law and deficit pressures. Black community leaders lobby for Burton's plan amid charges of policy harming the poor and perpetuating mortality disparities.
