BILL NUMBER:  AB 2365
  VETOED	DATE: 08/29/2016




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 2365 without my signature.

This bill, until January 1, 2022, would establish a sales tax
exemption to customers who buy back their pledged property from
pawnbrokers after defaulting on a loan.

I continue to believe that the state's budget remains precariously
balanced due to unexpected costs and the provision of new services.
New sales tax exemptions, like new spending on programs, need to be
considered comprehensively as part of the budget deliberations.

Therefore, I cannot sign this measure.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
