To the Honorable Members of the

Illinois Senate

93rd General Assembly

 

 

Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto ­Senate Bill 618, entitled “AN ACT regarding education.”   I recognize and appreciate the hard work of all the sponsors in passing this legislation.  However, Senate Bill 618 contains identical language as Public Act 93-0212, effective July 18, 2003

 

For this reason, I hereby veto and return Senate Bill 618.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

ROD R. BLAGOJEVICH

Governor
