Legislature 'Up in Air' About Major Differences

"

By VINCENT THOMAS Apart from these principal Assemblyman, 6Rth District | issues, our work during the

As 1 write this less than c°npral session is about on a three days remain before the lovcl " ith that of previous ion* i i , ., General sessions in recent 1B85 general session or the vcars In the Sena ,e 1531Legislature must adjourn in bills were introduced, and in compliance with the Constl- the Assembly, 3490. Each tutlon. Rut still waiting final lmusp nas passed roughly action are three basic issues | h »U "!« bills. About a third .. 10necc KJ-. . ; of the bills passing one house the 1965-fifi hiidfirt. taxes. !havc been Hjent £ the Gov.and Senate rrapportionment. 'ernor Failure to pass legislation in ny one of these three areas could result in the calling of a special session. As of right now, few will hazard a guess as to what the outcome of the general session may be.

The budget bill has passnl both houses, but in different versions. The two totals r.i- not far apart, close to $4 ! ' billion, but there are wn!< variations between the vn ions in some controversi.t' items. The conference com mittee of three members from each house has already held hours of hearings in its efforts to iron out the differ- ences.

THE OMNIBUS tax bill squeaked through the Assem- bly. losing several features because the necessary two- thirds vote could not be ob- tained. Its authors gave it vigorous support in the hear- ing before the Senate Reve nue and Taxation Committee. but It was obvious that the bill was not getting a very favorable reception. The Com mittee's decision to "take thr bill under submission" i: considered a good indicator. that It will take no action on taxes until the size of the budget for next year Is decid- ed. New or Increased taxes can be decided upon after the width of the gap between next year's revenues and ap- proved expenditures Is known.

The bill to reapportlon our state Senate underwent ma- jor surgery In the Assembly Elections and Reapportlon- ment Committee before it passed that house. The bound- aries for the 12 Ix>s Angeles County districts to be estab- lished by the measure as »p- proved by the Senate were junked. Substituted were new boundaries devised by the Committee, which the lone Senator from that county an- grily described as "crass po- litical gerrymandering." The Assembly version also would set district boundaries In each of the five counties which would be entitled to two Senators under the bill. All obaervers expect the Sen- ate to reject the Assemblyversion.

TF A SPECIAL session Is necessary. Its timing will de- pend on which of these three measures has failed to make the grade when our deadline arrives. If It It reapportlon- ment. the Governor may feel obliged to call It early enough ao we could be back In spe- cial session before you read this, because of the federal court decision requiring re- districting by July 1. If It is taxes, the session could be delayed some Ume.
