BILL NUMBER: AB 2088 VETOED DATE: 09/25/2014 To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 2088 without my signature. This bill seeks to prevent substandard health care coverage from being sold in the employer market by setting a minimum threshold for value. While well-intentioned, to the extent this bill would outlaw any "grandfathered plans" ? those products that have been continuously sold to an employer prior to the passage of the Affordable Care Act ? it may violate federal law. Sincerely, Edmund G. Brown Jr.
