| To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 1919 without my signature. This bill requires a school district to document any alternative means of correction used prior to the suspension of a student and requires, by July 1, 2026, local educational agencies to adopt at least one of the best practices for restorative justice implementation developed by the California Department of Education. I respect the author's commitment to expanding restorative justice practices in our schools. Providing students with alternative conflict resolution methods is an important strategy for improving the academic achievement and school environment for all students. Unfortunately, while contingent upon budget appropriation, this bill adds tens of millions in ongoing cost pressures to future budgets. 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 |
