Ogilvie Opposed to College City Aid Amid Bill Amendments
Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie reiterated he is opposed in principle to the proposed 4 million dollar college city aid bill. He signaled a potential veto if the measure reaches his desk, noting amended provisions delay effectiveness until the 1973 fiscal year. He criticized Senate Democrats for delaying administration money bills and warned about bargaining timing during remaining session days. He also questioned revenue sharing prospects in 1972 and suggested bipartisan talks on mass transit subsidies.
