The Honorable Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.

President of the Senate

State House

Annapolis, Maryland 21401

Dear Mr. President:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 493.

Senate Bill 493 would require the Motor Vehicle Administration to issue identification
cards to individuals who are nonresident students enrolled in an accredited school,
college, or university in Maryland. This bill establishes for the first time a requirement
that Maryland issue official identification cards to nonresidents.

This bill creates an unnecessary potential for fraud since it is difficult to validate
out-of-state documents that may be used to obtain this Maryland identification card. In
light of the rather limited benefit of this bill, that is, to make check cashing easier for
college students from out of state, the risk of fraud seems unwarranted.

Because I believe this bill would establish the undesirable precedent that Maryland
must issue official identification cards to nonresidents, and due to the potential for
fraud. I have today vetoed Senate Bill 493.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor
