BILL NUMBER:  AB 988
  VETOED	DATE: 10/12/2009




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 988 without my signature.

This bill would require the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and
Training to create and make available to all law enforcement
agencies training content on the U Visa.  This measure is
unnecessary.  It is the policy and practice of the Commission to
periodically review and update existing course curricula.  If the
Commission determines that training on the U Visa is warranted, it
can create a program without this measure.

For these reasons, I am unable to sign this bill.

Sincerely,



Arnold Schwarzenegger
