BILL NUMBER: AB 10 VETOED DATE: 10/10/2015 To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 10 without my signature. This bill makes several changes to the Political Reform Act of 1974, including significant changes to reporting requirements on statements of economic interests. The Political Reform Act already requires public officials to disclose their income, investments and business activities with enough particularity so that conflicts of interest can be identified. This bill adds yet more complexity to existing reporting requirements without commensurate benefit, and I am not convinced that this bill will provide more useful information to the public. Sincerely, Edmund G. Brown Jr.
