| To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 2448 without my signature. This bill would require the Labor and Workforce Development Agency (LWDA), upon appropriation of the Legislature, to establish an Electric Vehicle Economic Opportunity Zone in the county of Riverside, for the purpose of creating educational and employment opportunities related to electrical vehicles. While I support efforts to boost electric vehicle manufacturing jobs and education in this state, particularly in low-income communities, this bill creates General Fund cost pressures and should be considered in the annual budget process. In partnership with the Legislature this year, my Administration has enacted a balanced budget that avoids deep program cuts to vital services and protected investments in education, health care, climate, public safety, housing, and social service programs that millions of Californians rely on. It is important to remain disciplined when considering bills with significant fiscal implications that are not included in the budget, such as this measure. For this reason, I cannot sign this bill. Sincerely, Gavin Newsom |
