Referring to premium and incentive products as "unnecessary items" and as things "which likely end up in landfills," Governor Brown announced the ban as part of his plan to cut $363 million from the state's budget. According to the governor's website, the state spent $7.5 million on promotional products between 2007 and 2010.
