Compromise welfare plan vote set for Tuesday in Sacramento
In a special session called by Lt. Gov. Ed Reinecke while Gov. Reagan tours Australia, California legislators will vote on a $122 million welfare compromise. The plan raises monthly grants for the elderly and disabled and the blind, adds a restaurant meal allowance, and rolls back adult child contributions to welfare parents to 1961 levels. Democrats framed the measure as a win after earlier Reagan opposed versions. The agreement keeps state and local welfare costs at about $467 million annually.
