Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Tuesday vetoed Senate Bill 815, a measure
that would have doubled permanent disability benefits over three years.
"The changes proposed by SB 815 are not based on a comprehensive analysis, and will double the cost of permanent disability benefits," Schwarzenegger said in his veto message. "As we look to build upon the economic successes of the last three years, I simply cannot support a measure that would reverse many of the economic gains now powering California's economy."
