California school tax reform plan backed by Reagan unveiled
A $1.2 billion property tax relief and school finance bill backed by Gov. Reagan and Assembly Speaker Bob Moretti was unveiled to the California Senate.

The plan would raise the state sales tax by one cent, use part of a budget surplus to meet court objections, and shift more school costs to the state. It would boost the homeowner exemption and include modest tax increases in income and corporate taxes.
