To the Honorable Members of the
Illinois House of Representatives
95th General Assembly
Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto House Bill 405, entitled “AN ACT concerning local government.” I recognize and appreciate the hard work of all the sponsors in passing this legislation. However, House Bill 405 represents a potential tax increase.
For this reason, I hereby veto and return House Bill 405.
Sincerely,
ROD R. BLAGOJEVICH
Governor
