SACRAMENTO (AP) — The state Assembly speaker wants to replace a rainy day fund measure on the November 2014 ballot that was pushed by former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Republican lawmakers three years ago. Speaker John Perez, D-Los Angeles, plans to announce a new ballot measure Wednesday, potentially making it more favorable for the public employee unions that support Democratic lawmakers.
