Sonny Bono and the Salton Sea

Article Abstract:

California Representative Mary Bono has continued the sea-saving crusade of her late husband and former Congressman Sonny Bono. Bono has filed a legislative proposal seeking the restoration of the Salton Sea. Under the bill, the sea will undergo detoxification from high salinity and chemical contaminants. The bill has gained popular support from Bono's colleagues despite problems related to the funding of the multimillion endeavor. The bill is titled the Sonny Bono Memorial Salton Sea Reclamation Act.

District-by-district analysis: Congress

Article Abstract:

The election prospects of congressional candidates for each of California's districts are evaluated. The state is expected to have at least 15 new congressmen out of its 52 seats. The number of seats increased by seven due to the 1990 census. The composition of the congressional winners is complicated by the 'Rubbergate' House check-kiting scandal. Some of the incumbents involved in the scandal are mentioned and they are expected to find difficulty getting re-elected.
