Without this ability---to make sure that only those truly\neligible for welfare actually receive it---the job of screening out\nineligible recipients would be infinitely more difficult.\n\"I think this is a landmark decision for welfare reform and the\ntaxpayers of California.\"\nA State Department of Social Welfare investigating team found\nglaring discrepancies in the AFDC-Unemployed program recently in San\nFrancisco County where some allegedly unemployed fathers were working and\ndrawing paychecks and staying on welfare by not fully reporting their\nincomes to the welfare department. The team found that allegedly\nunemployed mothers in the APDC-Family Group program were doing likewise.\nRobert B. Carleson, welfare director, said: \"We found that only\nabout half of the outside income earned by AFDC recipients was being\nreported, and that apparently the higher the earnings, the lower accuracy\nof the reporting.\" \"\nCarleson said today the Earnings Clearance System is being\nimplemented in all 58 California counties, and the counties have been\ndirected to report their findings to the state by mid-August. He said\nstate auditing teams will go into selected counties to confirm their\nreports.\n- 1 -\n#449\nThe Third District Appeal court's decision today overrules orders\nissued by Sacramento Superior Court Judges William Gallagher and Abbott\nGoldberg which had blocked any checking of welfare recipients' outside\nincome for a period of approximately four months.\nOn February 1, Judge Gallagher issued a temporary restraining order,\nbrought by the Golden Gate Welfare Rights Organization, which halted the\nincome checking procedure. The order was issued without notice to the\nstate, and was not learned of by the State Attorney General's office\nuntil three days later.\nGallagher assigned the case to Judge Goldberg when the Attorney\nGeneral challenged Gallagher's ability to hear the case impartially, on\nthe grounds he was \"prejudiced\" against the state's interests.\nGoldberg subsequently refused to lift the restraining order.\nIn May the appellate court issued an extraordinary order staying all\naction by the Sacramento Superior Court in the case and ordered Judge\nGoldberg to show cause why the check on welfare recipients' outside\nincomes should not proceed.\nThe Earnings Clearance System crosschecks the Department of Social\nWelfare master list of aid recipients against the Department of Human\nResources Development's record of earnings reported by employers for\nunemployment insurance purposes. Confidentiality safeguards for\nrecipients are maintained because the state relies solely on information\nalready in its possession.\n######\nWalthall\n- 2 -\nOFFICE OF GOVERNOR NALD REAGAN\nRELEASE:\nImmediate\nSacramento, Califor a 95814\nEd Gray, Press Secretary\n916-445-4571\n8-2-72\n#450\n(ATTENTION: State Social Welfare Director Robert Carleson, will be\navailable for interviews or to answer questions concerning the following\nrelease in the Governor's Office between 9:30 amd 10:30 a.m. today)\nGovernor Ronald Reagan, citing the \"unprecedented success\" of his\nadministra tion's welfare reform program, today announced that the number\nof Californians on the welfare rolls declined again in June---by nearly\n40,000.\nHe said that as a result of the June drop in the caseload, there\nare now 205,000 fewer people receiving welfare around the state than\nthere were in March, 1971 (2,298,440) when the administration's welfare\nreforms began taking hold.\n\"This dramatic decline has been achieved in the face of rising\nwelfare costs and caseload increases elsewhere across the nation during\nthe same period.\n\"The truly unprecedented success of our reforms attests to the\nsoundness of the concepts on which our program was founded, and was\naccomplished in spite of the dire predictions of a horde of critics that\nit could not be done,\" the governor said.\n\"Had the reforms not been instituted, and had our caseload\ncontinued to climb at the 40,000 per month rate we had been experiencing\nprior to welfare reform, there would now be 708,000 more Californians\non the rolls than there actually are---at a total cumulative increased\ncost to the taxpayers of nearly $400 million (federal, state and local).\n\"The proven success of the reforms we have pioneered in California\ncan provide a blueprint for welfare reform across the nation. To attempt\nto rationalize or explain away any longer the stiking turnabout we have\nachieved is to ingore tha facts,\" the governor said.\n\"Our hard-pressed taxpayers and the truly needy on welfare are\nthe real victors,\" he added.\nState Social Welfare Director, Robert B. Carleson, said the June\ndecline in the caseload showed, for the first time, the effect of a\nprovision in the 1971 Welfare Reform Act which reduces grants to those\nwith significant outside incomes in order to make funds available for\nincreasing grants to persons wholly dependent on welfare. The provision\nwas scheduled to go into effect last October 1 but was blocked by the\nCalifornia Supreme Court until being overturned by the U.S. Supreme\nCourt May 11.\n-1-\n#450\nOnly yesterday, in a separate court action, the State District\nCourt of Appeal upheld another key provision of the Governor's Welfare\nReform Program which permits the state to track down welfare cheaters\nby crosschecking the outside earnings of recipients. A lower court had\nblocked the computer checks, but the Apellate Court stepped into the\ncase and vindicated the earnings verification procedure as \" simply\ncommon sense.\" The unanimous Apellate Court ruling said: \"Neither\nsound business practice nor the law demands less care if public\nconfidence in the AFDC (Aid to Families with Dependent Children) program\nis to be maintained.\"\nGovernor Reagan called it \"a landmark decision for welfare\nreform and the taxpayers of California.\"\nCarleson said, \"There is every reason to believe that as a result\nof these and other important court decisions the state's welfare rolls\ncan decline even further in the months ahead---as eligibility is further\ntightened and those receiving aid fraudulently continue to be removed\nfrom the rolls. Ultimately, of course, the caseload will stabilize,\"\nhe said.\n\"The beneficiaries of our efforts will be the taxpayers and\nthose truly needy among us who are, in fact, entitled to public\nassistance,\" Carleson added.\n(39,696)\nThe big drop in the June caseload/ was in the Aid to families\nwith Dependent Children program, almost equally divided between families\nwhose breadwinner is unemployed and those whose father is absent through\ndeath, divorce or desertion.\nThere were 17,900 fewer persons in the AFDC-U category and\n17,500 less in AFDC-FG. The number of children cared for in Boarding\nHomes and Institutions was up by 51.\nIn the adult aid programs there was a decrease from May of 2,100\nin Old Age security recupients, 1,000 in Aid to the Totally Disabled, and\n58 in Aid to the Blind.\nThe number of cash grant recipients supported out of state,\nfederal and county funds was down by 38,000. The number of General\nHome Relief funded entirely by the counties was down by 1,300.\n# # # #\n-2-\nGray\nPUBLIC ASSISTANCE CASELOADS AND EXPENDITURES\nJune 1972\nRecipients\nPayments\nProgram\nJuneP/\nMay\nJune\nJunep/\nMay\nJune\n1972\n1972\n1971\n1972\n1972\n1971\nGrand total\n2,093,305\n2,133,001\n2,200,441\n$164,964,427\n$165,694,884\n$160,319,815\nCash grant recipients\n2,039,265\n2,077,709\n2,114,585\n161,019,808\n161,756,279\n155,949,252\nGeneral home relief\n54,040\n55,292\n85,856\n3,944,619\n3,938,605\n4,370,563\nCASH GRANT PROGRAMS\nAverage monthly payments2\nAGED PERSONS (OAS)\n308,190\n310,257\n319,518\n$\n110.33\n$\n107.51\nBLIND PERSONS (AB/APSB)\n14,060\n14,118\n14,062\n152.52\n151.80\nDISABLED PERSONS (ATD)\n198,710\n199,710\n189,564\n132.37\n129.79\nFAMILIES WITH\nDEPENDENT CHILDREN\nFamily groups (AFDC-FG):\nchildren\n902,023\n915,365\n906,734\n88.65\n86.79\n81.84\ncases\n392,432\n395,130\n380,758\n203.77\n201.06\n194.89\ntotal persons\n1,272,425\n1,289,884\n1,263,135\n62.85\n61.59\n58.75\nUnemployed cases (AFDC-U):\nchildren\n128,002\n138,733\n177,701\n96.35\n90.14\n79.79\ncases\n47,013\n50,594\n61,721\n262.33\n247.18\n229.73\ntotal persons\n212,330\n230,241\n293,685\n58.08\n54.32\n48.28\nBoarding Homes and\nInstitutions (AFDC-BHI):\nchildren\n33,550\n33,499\n34,621\n175.58\n166.88\n146.20\nGENERAL HOME RELIEF\nTotal persons\n54,040\n55,292\n85,856\n72.99\n71.23\n50.91\nFamily cases\n2,247\n2,319\n11,346\n82.34\n83.89\n59.15\nPersons in family cases\n6,174\n6,657\n35,174\n29.97\n29.22\n19.08\nOne-person cases\n47,866\n48,635\n50,682\n78.54\n76.98\n72.99\nUnemployed in labor force (%)\n6.5\n5.6\n7.7\nXXX\nXXX\nXXX\n(Seasonally adjusted)\n(6.1)\n(5.9)\n(7.3)\nXXX\nXXX\nXXX\nCivilian population (excluding\nmilitary)\n20,206,000\n20,186,000\n19,966,000\nXXX\nXXX\nXXX\nal Cash grant averages for adult aids computed from \"net\" person counts.\nExcludes U cases.\nPreliminary.\nSTATE DEPARTMENT OF BLIC HEALTH #72-032\nHuman Relations Agency\n744 P Street\nSacramento, California 95814\nVince Vandre, PIO\n(916) 445-2725\nFor Immediate Release\nBERKELEY-- Dr. Frederick B.

Carpenter (R-Newport Beach), which deletes Route 1 from the\nstate freeway system between Torrance and San Juan Capistrano.\nAt the same time, Governor Reagan signed three other measures\neliminating additional portions of Route 1 from the freeway system.\nOne bill (AB 704) by Assemblyman Frank Murphy (R-Santa Cruz) removes\nthe proposed route between the city of Santa Cruz north to the Santa\nCruz-San Mateo County line near Ano Nuevo State Reserve. The other two\n(AB 58) by Assemblyman James A. Hayes (R-Long Beach) and\nbills, / (AB 1322) by Assemblyman Robert E. Badham (R-Newport Beach),\ndeletes the freeway routes within their respective cities.\nThe deletions of Route 1 encompass a major implementation of\nGovernor Reagan's policy to move major north-south transportation\ncorridors inland where there are existing freeways to handle the\nincreasing traffic.\nIn signing the legislation, Governor Reagan commented:\n\"It is the policy of this administration that local communities\nwill be given a voice in the planning of transportation modes. The\nremoval of portions of this state highway from the freeway system\nprovides the opportunity for a cooperative review of whether a freeway\nor some other transportation facility would be more appropriate.\n\"I recognize that the deletions of Route 1 from the freeway system\ndoes not offer a solution to the transportation problems in the areas\neffected by the legislation I have just signed.

The bill specifies\nthat the Department of Public Works is not\nprecluded from acquiring real property necessary\nto increase the traffic capacity of existing\nRoute 2 as a conventional highway or as a limited\naccess parkway. The bill further declares legis-\nlative intent that the Department of Public\nWorks and other public entities consider the\nfeasibility of modifying existing surface arter-\nials and county secondary highways into limited\naccess parkways to relieve traffic congestion in\nthe area served by such portion of Route 2.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"I am personally opposed to the construction of\nan 8 to 10 lane freeway through the transporta-\ntion corridor between Glendale and the San Diego\nFreeway in Los Angeles.\n\"However, to remove Route 2 from the State Free-\nway and Expressway System when a cooperative study\nis under way on a regional multi-modal transpor-\ntation system by the Southern California Associa-\ntion of Governments, the Southern California Rapid\nTransit District and the state at this time would\nbe a serious mistake.\n\"This bill would prematurely remove some of the\noptions available to solving the problems created\nby the ever-increasing traffic congestion on\nsurface streets in this fine residential area.\nThe deletion of a previously approved route in\nthe freeway and expressway system must not be\ndone on a piecemeal basis when there are no\nclear alternatives to meeting long-range trans-\nportation requirements.\n\"The many arguments \"for\" and \"against\" this\nfreeway deletion bill emphasize to me the urgent\nnecessity to evaluate the above study before any\naction is taken. In addition, I have directed\nthe State Department of Public Works to report\nto me early next year on alternative solutions to\nthe problems in this area.\n\"This proposed freeway segment must be looked\nupon as a vital corridor in the long-range plan\nfor moving people and goods in one way or another\nthrough the Los Angeles area. To eliminate this\ncorridor now would be premature and could produce\nan adverse effect on the overall, long-range\ntransportation planning for the Los Angeles\nmetropolitan area.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned.\"\n# # #\nWalthall\nOF GOVERNOR KONALD REAGAN\nRELEASE:\nimmediate\nSacramento, California 95814\nEd Gray, Press Secret\n1\n916-445-4571\n8-15-72\n#474\nGovernor Ronald Reagan has signed legislation (AB 246) by\nAssemblyman Bob Wood (R-Salinas) designed to provide maximum safe\nworking conditions for farm workers and others who work in pesticide\ntreated areas.\n\"This bill will bring together the best resources of the people\nin agriculture and in public health, at both the state and local level,\nto insure that pesticides are applied, handled and stored safely in\nCalifornia on a continuing basis,\" Governor Reagan said.\n\"With the phasing out of certain environmentally harmful pesticides,\nagriculture has had to turn to alternative chemicals.
