BILL NUMBER:  AB 676
  VETOED	DATE: 10/10/2015




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 676 without my signature.

This bill would prohibit an employer from discriminating against job
applicants based on the applicant's status as unemployed.

This bill is substantially similar to the bill I vetoed last year.
Nothing has changed. I still believe that the author's approach does
not provide a proper or even effective path to get unemployed people
back to work.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
