Federal money proposed for campaign cash in primaries
Sens Mondale and Schweiker introduce a bipartisan plan to extend federal subsidies to presidential primary campaigns while maintaining public financing for the general election. The bill caps nomination spending at 15 million and general election spending at 30 million, with private contributions limited to 3000 per donor and matching funds from general revenues. It aims to double tax credits and deductions for political giving and would fund primaries through general revenue matching for donations of 100 or less.

Low water flow and higher temperatures limited effectiveness, with about a 50 percent kill versus last year. Brown trout releases and ongoing plans to release 35,000 more fingerlings are noted, alongside expectations of natural repopulation from the lakes.
