San Diego bids for GOP in 72
San Diego sought the Republican National Convention for August 1972 with San Francisco Houston Chicago and Miami Beach already in contention. A letter to Senator Robert Dole stated facilities exist in San Diego and the city offered $750000, though Swig would only sell to the city at that price if no higher bid. The Mission Inn, a historic hotel with California architecture and artifacts, has hosted many Bollywood and celebrity weddings, though it has faced financial losses and ownership changes. Tours would continue as the inn is listed as a state historic monument.

Senate unit stalls 7.5 billion Reagan budget version
The Senate Finance Committee delayed its 7.5 billion version of Gov. Reagan's proposed budget after a Democratic member said no funds exist to cover it. Chair Randolph Collier noted a likely vote to send it to the full Senate, but Sen. John Holmdahl opposed due to revenue shortfalls. The panel's split vote postponed action on both the budget and a tax increase bill as lawmakers weigh balancing expenditures with state revenues. The governor’s FY starts July 1 with a 6.73 billion base, plus major increases and expected revenue cuts.
