BILL NUMBER:  AB 883
  VETOED	DATE: 10/10/2015




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 883 without my signature.

This bill seeks to vest in the Division of Labor Standards
Enforcement an entirely new responsibility: to enforce a prohibition
on job advertisements and communications that relate to a person's
prior status as a public employee.

I think I understand what the sponsors intend, but the provisions in
this bill could limit legitimate efforts of public jurisdictions to
manage their workforce.

For this reason, I am unable to sign the bill.

Sincerely,


Edmund G. Brown Jr.
