Schwarzenegger Takes Up Health Care Reform…Again ()
The California Field Poll out today says 69% of the voters are unhappy with the health care with 36% favoring one that’s government run. That’s not what Governor Schwarzenegger is proposing but, with the budget battle now over, he turned his attention to his own plan for reform.

Global Warming and Health Care Reform ()
One of Governor Schwarzenegger’s signature issues is Global Warming. He announced today that eight western states and Canadian provinces have established the common goal of reducing greenhouse gases. But Senators from Schwarzenegger’s own Republican Party denounced Democratic Attorney General Jerry Brown when he sued San Bernardino County for failing to include greenhouse gas targets in its long-term growth plan. Yesterday, that suit was settled.
