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 619.

This bill adds a category of funding to the current police aid formula and requires the
State to pay $900 to each municipality for every full-time sworn police officer
employed.

House Bill 651, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May
29, 1990, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign
Senate Bill 619.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor

Senate Bill No. 619

AN ACT concerning

State Aid for Police Protection Services

FOR the purpose of providing for the payment of certain additional amounts by the
State each fiscal year to Baltimore City and certain municipalities calculated on
the number of sworn police officers employed by the subdivision or municipality;
