President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis, MD 21401
Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, today I have
vetoed Senate Bill 720 - Horse Racing - Purses and the Racing Special Fund -
Allocation.
This emergency bill creates a special fund consisting of specified revenues and
requires that money from the special fund be used for purses for the running of the
Pimlico Special and for purses at Rosecroft Raceway. The bill also requires that the
funds be allocated by the Maryland Racing Commission in a specified manner and
requires that after specified deductions from the Racing Special Fund are made,
specified funds are to be allocated in a specified manner by the Comptroller.
House Bill 1029, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate
Bill 720.
Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
Senate Bill No. 720
