BILL NUMBER:  AB 2707
  VETOED	DATE: 09/27/2016




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 2707 without my signature.

This bill creates a cause of action to enforce a prohibition on
racial profiling of consumers.

The Unruh Civil Rights Act -- in a more expansive way -- already
prohibits the racial discrimination covered by this bill. Moreover,
the state has vested in the Department of Fair Employment and Housing
a full range of strong enforcement authority, including for those
claims dealing with racial profiling.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
