BILL NUMBER:  SB 216
  VETOED	DATE: 09/29/2014




To the Members of the California State Senate:

I am returning Senate Bill 216 without my signature.

This bill would require the Department of Human Resources to address
salary compaction issues for managers and supervisors by increasing
pay by 10% and report to the legislature in years when a salary
increase is not provided.

I understand that the intent of this bill is to ensure that the
salaries for managerial employees are higher than the employees they
supervise. My administration has made progress on this issue within
the past 12 months and will continue to meet with representatives of
excluded employees to discuss compaction issues as appropriate.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
