91_SB1241gms State of Illinois OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR Springfield, Illinois 62706 George H. Ryan GOVERNOR June 16, 2000 To the Honorable Members of the Illinois State Senate 91st General Assembly Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto and return Senate Bill 1241 entitled, "AN ACT to amend the Illinois Vehicle Code." Senate Bill 1241 amends Sections 2-119 and 3-634 of the Illinois Vehicle Code to provide that money in the Illinois Fire Fighters' Memorial Fund shall, subject to appropriation by the General Assembly, be used for maintaining the Illinois Fire Fighters' Memorial, for holding an annual memorial commemoration, and for providing scholarships to children of fire fighters killed in the line of duty. I fully support the provisions in Senate Bill 1241; however, I have already signed into law House Bill 2870, which contains identical provisions. For this reason, I hereby veto and return Senate Bill 1241. Sincerely, George H. Ryan GOVERNOR
