BILL NUMBER:  AB 1378
  VETOED	DATE: 10/02/2015




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 1378 without my signature.

This bill would allow each spouse in a marriage to submit a separate
base-year property tax valuation transfer claim.

I think this bill is too broad and allows an already generous
property tax benefit to be allowed a second time on a larger scale.

I do not believe that it would be prudent to authorize legislation
such as this that would result in significant long-term costs to the
General Fund.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
