New Bill Proposes Ban on Handguns in California
A group of 13 legislators introduced a bill to ban private possession of handguns in California. It would compensate owners at fair market value for guns surrendered to law enforcement within six months after January 1, 1977, and allow possession by pistol clubs, officers, the National Guard, and armored transport guards.

California ends prepaid health plans under Brown era
The Brown administration will terminate prepaid health plans created under Reagan and replace them with Institutes for Medical Service within 90 days. About 274000 plan enrollees will transition to the new institutes or be moved to fee-for-service care. The move follows fraud and political influence concerns and aims to improve consumer control and 24 hour access to preventive and emergency care.

The California State Senate approved a 10 percent pay raise for 120 legislators effective December 6, 1976, raising salaries to 23 232 a year. The measure passed 27 to 12 and moves to the Assembly. Senate Pro Tem James Mills argued the raise is not a cost of living adjustment, while Sen Newton Russell urged removing self- setting with a board to control salaries.

Bill barring strike-breaker hiring gains
Sen. David Roberts's bill to bar hiring strike breakers passed the Senate with a 21-17 vote and moves to the Assembly. It defines a professional strike breaker as someone who offers repeatedly to two or more employers to replace workers on strike or during lockouts. Hiring such a person would be a misdemeanor, as would offering employment knowingly. Prior similar efforts failed in past years.

Senate stalls campaign bill in tight vote
The Senate blocked a campaign finance bill on Thursday failing to clear a 21 vote threshold. It would have imposed a $100 cap on contributions and created a limited public financing system for state government elections. Senator Anthony Bellenson led the measure, but the 17 to 19 roll call left the bill four votes short in the 40 member chamber.
