BILL NUMBER: AB 2031 VETOED DATE: 09/30/2012 To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 2031 without my signature. This bill would add rank and file law enforcement and other members to the Board of State and Community Corrections and local Community Corrections Partnerships. The membership of the Board and the local Partnerships was something I carefully considered and crafted as part of my realignment proposal. To date, I have not seen credible evidence that would convince me to change the original design. If, after a reasonable period of time, it becomes clear that the absence of rank and file members is a problem, I will be glad to reconsider. Sincerely, Edmund G. Brown Jr.
