California Policy Inbox

California Policy Inbox, from the Institute of Governmental Studies Center on Politics and the Institute of Governmental Studies Library at UCBerkeley, offers "[a] quick and easy update on what's new in California public policy research," with links to reports on finance, health care, education, business, children and families, and other topics, plus connections to California public policy organizations.

Btw, as I predicted, Steve Westly is starting to pull ahead in the race for governor. And here's a note to Steve (or Phil, if he should pull it out): a new poll from the institute shows that most people think the state should spend a lot more on public education, and they know from whence the dough should come: a hike in the top bracket of the state income tax. Parenthetically, the governator’s approval rating is at 38 percent: hasta la vista, baby.
