Showdown looms over Medi-Cal cut and 18 vote proposal
In Sacramento this week legislators take up two key issues. Assemblyman Gordon Duffy pushes a bill to restore about one third of Reagan era Medi-Cal cuts, offsetting a projected deficit while preserving 10 percent provider cuts. Sen George Moscone seeks a constitutional amendment to let 18 year olds vote in state elections, aiming for approval on the Senate floor after a close earlier roll.

Moscone Proposes 18- to 21-Year-Old Vote Expansion
A slate of 20 proposals to extend statewide voting rights to 18 to 21 year-olds is debated in California. Moscone, Senate floor leader, aligns with Gov Reagan on the plan while critics warn youth immaturity and drug abuse. If enacted, county clerks would maintain separate adult and 14 to 21 year-old voter lists. Las Vegas Mayor Grayson announces a bid for a fourth term, set for May 4, after serving since 1959.
