Reagan backs withholding plan but won’t seek bill now

California Governor Ronald Reagan said Californians can have a state income tax withholding plan if they want it, but he will not propose legislation now. He cited faith in voters and said he would oppose it as a matter of principle if Congress passes it. A hearing on a withholding measure led by Assemblyman John G. Yeunteran was postponed to mid April. Reagan indicated his reform tax package may be delayed to next year while proposing a property tax relief plan returning 155 million dollars to counties.
