BILL NUMBER:  SB 1385
  VETOED	DATE: 09/25/2016




To the Members of the California State Senate:

I am returning Senate Bill 1385 without my signature.

This bill requires the state to fund 100 percent of the eligible
local emergency recovery costs related to the San Bernardino
terrorist shooting in December 2015.

I recognize the unique circumstances of this horrific terrorist
attack. However, this bill sets the expectation that the state will
assume all financial responsibility for future emergency costs. The
General Fund cannot afford this precedent.

The Office of Emergency Services will continue to work with the local
agencies in San Bernardino to ensure that all eligible costs are
reimbursed through the California Disaster Assistance Act.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
