BILL NUMBER:  AB 1182
  VETOED	DATE: 10/04/2011




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 1182 without my signature.

This bill would allow a person applying for welfare to have one car,
or possibly more, of any value, rather than a maximum value of $4,650
under current law.

In the last year, the state has been forced to make steep reductions
in many programs, including the state's welfare-to-work program. As
we go into the new year, we may have to make additional cuts. Until
we better understand the fiscal outlook, we should not be making
changes of this kind.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
