Governor's Message |
---|
To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 1301 without my signature. This bill would establish a state "pre-clearance" system under which certain political subdivisions are required to obtain approval from the Secretary of State before implementing policy changes related to elections. While I agree that the impairment of key provisions in the federal Voting Rights Act deserves a national remedy, I am unconvinced that a California-only pre-clearance system is needed. Sincerely, Edmund G. Brown Jr. |
