BILL NUMBER:  AB 1565
  VETOED	DATE: 09/28/2014




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 1565 without my signature.

I appreciate the author's desire to focus on the needs of lesbian,
gay, bisexual or transgender veterans, but creating a new grant
program without a funding source is premature.

If any funding is identified in the future for such a program, the
California Department of Veterans Affairs would be a better entity
for its administration.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
