HUGH R. SLAYDEN
Acting Chief Clerk of the Assembly
Veto Message—Assembly Bill No. 113
Governor’s Office, Sacramento
September 24, 2004
To the Members of the California State Assembly:
I am returning Assembly Bill 113 without my signature.
The Off-Highway Vehicle Stakeholders Roundtable is a successful
stakeholder advisory utility that has been able to develop
consensus-based off-highway vehicle legislation and recommendations.
I support balancing the priorities of the Off-Highway Motor
Vehicle (OHV) Recreation Division between recreation and
conservation. The best way to achieve balance is through the
collaborative stakeholder process of the OHV Roundtable. This bill
circumvents that process.
This bill requires the Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation
Commission to include an explanation of the impact of an expenditure
made from the Off-Highway Vehicle Trust Fund and balances and of its
statutory requirements. Additionally, this bill restates the protection of
off-highway vehicle recreational opportunities as one of the purposes of
the Off-Highway Vehicle Program.
For these reasons I am unable to support this measure.
Sincerely,
ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER
Veto Message—Assembly Bill No. 606
Governor’s Office, Sacramento
September 24, 2004
To the Members of the California State Assembly:
I am returning Assembly Bill 606 without my signature.
California has many laws and regulations that protect an employee’s
right to adequate meal and rest periods, including a recently added
statutory penalty against any employer who violates meal and rest
period requirements. Yet, despite the strong foundation of California
labor law and the numerous new laws added in recent years, the
proponents of AB 606 believe that even more changes are needed.
AB 606 singles out one industry and places additional requirements
on employers in that industry. Specifically, this bill would require longer
rest periods and other accommodations for employees classified as hotel
room attendants and would establish new reporting requirements and
penalties for employers who fail to comply with these requirements.
