Reagan vetoes California methadone expansion bill
Gov. Reagan vetoed a 5 million dollar bill to expand California methadone treatment for heroin addicts. Assemblyman Vasconcellos called for a veto override and urged Reagan to resign, criticizing the veto messages as dishonest. The governor said funds would create a separate program before existing projects are judged. Methadone substitutes heroin cravings, with debaters split on its effectiveness.
