TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2001

A number of California tribes are pushing Gov. Gray Davis (D) to adopt legislation that would develop a new curriculum for teaching Indian education, culture and history in public schools.

Davis previously vetoed a version of the bill, saying it didn't comply with requirement on introducing a new curriculum. The bill has been changed to address his concerns, say supporters.

Davis has until October 14 to consider the bill.
