To the Honorable Members of the

Illinois Senate

95th General Assembly

 

            Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto Senate Bill 2298, entitled “AN ACT concerning local government.”  I recognize and appreciate the hard work of all the sponsors in passing this legislation. However, I do not agree with certain aspects of this legislation.         

 

            For this reason, I hereby veto and return Senate Bill 2298.

 

 

Sincerely,
