Reinecke Shapes Gop Image Amid Welfare Clash

He backs Nixon era policies on domestic aid, warns of a rising welfare state, and argues conservative GOP unity around state priorities. He predicts Nixon will win California in 1972, and doubts Pete McCloskey’s primary impact.

State senator says Nixon aides lured him to lobby in Washington
California State Senate leader Sen James Mills says the Nixon administration invited state lawmakers to Washington under false pretenses to lobby for a revenue sharing bill. Mills says aides urged lobbying on Capitol Hill after briefings by Romney Connally and MacGregor, though the meeting offered no bill explanations. He stayed to oppose the measure and said the trip wasted tax dollars and his time.
