Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger called for broad changes to the state’s budget, pension and tax systems, a constitutional requirement to spend more on higher education than prisons, and a greater share of federal funding for California.  (Jay L. Clendenin / Los Angeles Times)

Schwarzenegger’s initiatives are certain to be difficult given that he and lawmakers face another $20-billion deficit -- similar to the one that took months to close last year -- and that they already have cut drastically many state programs.  (Jay L. Clendenin / Los Angeles Times)
