Afternoon update
So, if you picked Option A, congratulations. We'll run Jean Ortiz's story tomorrow on the flight of the butterflies into California and how and why they seem to be in greater numbers this year than in the past. The tax package, by the way, isn't going away. It will be on the news budget for Friday's paper.
Also on Page One tomorrow will be a two-story package on the U.S. Supreme Court decision today on age discrimation. We'll have a wire story reporting what happened in Washington and then staff writer Stephanie Hoops will talk to California employement lawyers for their reaction.
The package on Cesar Chavez will also run tomorrow, starting with the story out of Washington by Michael Collins on the effort by the United Farm Workers to honor Chavez by getting Congress to approve a bill giving farm workers the opportunity to stay permanently, and legally, in the U.S. if they entered the country illegally. We'll also have stories on the Chavez' connection to Oxnard and the current status of farm workers in Sacramento.
The other two wire stories for page one will be coverage of the latest legal action in the Terri Schiavo case and the swearing in of Secretary of State Bruce McPherson.
