BILL NUMBER:  AB 1260
  VETOED	DATE: 09/29/2014




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 1260 without my signature.

Family-owned businesses have an important role in our state and local
economies and I am supportive of efforts that recognize their vital
contributions.  I am concerned, however, that adding a definition of
"California Family Owned Business" in statute with no legal or
programmatic purpose will not achieve the bill's intended purpose.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
