Veto

Governor Brown is in the midst of feverish signing and vetoing various bills. One bill - SB 169 - would have put into California law the now-revoked federal "guidance" to universities of under Title 9 relating to sexual assault and harassment. Brown notes in his veto message concerns about due process under Title 9 procedures that have arisen in recent years.

You can find the veto message at:

The actual bill is at:

It might be noted that the bill's language appears to extend into K-12 districts.

Brown also includes in his message reference to the "Yes Means Yes" law enacted in 2014.
