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.

Bill Would Ban Overpriced Medi Cal Drug Purchases
Assembly member Robert Crown proposed a bill to bar Medi Cal from buying drugs priced higher to retail pharmacies than to hospitals or clinics. The plan targets firms charging inflated wholesale prices and aims to save millions yearly, citing a drug maker with an $18.27 price for 500 tablets versus $14.03 to a hospital.
