Gov Brown's Newsroom - Check for Vetoes

[hoffmang]

I am not saying he will not sign or veto. I expect him to sign or veto every single one. However, that he signs or vetos them before midnight tonight doesn't mean he has to put up his press release informing the public of the final outcome tonight.

Attacking the Governor over such delays etc indicates severe lack of understanding.

[Doheny]

I'm not saying he *will* veto, but it's worth noting that he had a great opportunity to sign them and put 'em in his "Governor Brown Takes Action to Improve Public Safety and Help Law Enforcement " release. The fact that he didn't makes me *guess* (WAG) that he'll either veto or just not take action and let them pass without his signature.

IANAL, I am not The Right People, I'm Just Making A Wild Guess, etc.

Good point.

[Doheny]

Looks like Brown is going to be the big p***y he is. Not even man enough to sign the bills.


Well the UPS and FedEx drivers are going to be getting some work outs these next two months, thats for sure!

Maybe we should wait until after midnight to call him names...

(or not call him names at all.)

[Cylarz]

Why did he wait until so late in the period after the Legislature adjourned? They've been on his desk for - what - two weeks? What the hell has he been doing up until this weekend?

Interesting that the Legislature itself waited until the last minute, then crammed these four through.

Attacks

+1 on this.

Democracy is messy. Folks often forget that there is no requirement that legislative actions agree with their world view.

Even if we lose all tonight, the governor and the office both deserve our respect.

You're absolutely correct, bwiese.

We shouldn't be attacking Gov. Brown over the delay in reporting.

Instead, we should be attacking Gov. Brown over his political history.

Attack away.

Sigh.

No. If he allows them to become law he deserves our wrath.

Sigh.

Heh. I remember the all-night major-thread drunkathon that was AB962 Watch; I think I was on the phone with H. Paul Payne for at least 3 hours leading up to the news.

/me grabs flask.

That's what I'm doing wrong...off to the liquor cabinet!

This thread is hotter than 'Fast and Furious' the past couple of hours... I feel like we are all teenagers waiting for our girlfriends test to come back negative...

[wildhawker]

I doubt attacking will help any. If a 1000 of us or even 500 showed up in Sac, that would have mattered. I doubt these lobbyiest are any good. Legislatively we seem to be taking two steps back for each one forward.

Full stop.

Anyone who thinks our legislative positioning is due to a failure by our side is just flat wrong. Similarly, anyone who thinks we gain votes in Sacramento by a 500-1000 gunnie march/meet needs to turn in their MMJ card.

We in California have and will continue to face this sort of legislative battle for the foreseeable future. Accept it, be productive, move on.

Now THAT'S funny!
