To the Honorable Members of the

Illinois House of Representatives

93^rd General Assembly

Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto House Bill 194, entitled “AN ACT concerning Education.”   House Bill 194 contains identical language as Public Act 93-0055, effective July 1, 2003.  I recognize and appreciate the hard work of all the sponsors in passing these two measures. 

For this reason, I hereby veto and return House Bill 194.

Sincerely,

ROD R. BLAGOJEVICH

Governor
