BILL NUMBER: SB 808
VETOED DATE: 09/30/2014
To the Members of the California State Senate:
I am returning Senate Bill 808 without my signature.
SB 808 would require individuals who build guns at home to first
obtain a serial number and register the weapon with the Department of
Justice.
I appreciate the author's concerns about gun violence, but I can't
see how adding a serial number to a homemade gun would significantly
advance public safety.
Sincerely,
Edmund G. Brown Jr.
