The Honorable Benjamin L. Cardin
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404
Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland
Constitution, I have today vetoed House Bill 757.
This bill provides that evidence of refusal to submit to a
chemical test for alcohol is admissible at a trial for violation
of certain motor vehicle laws.
Senate Bill 85, which was passed by the General Assembly and
signed by me on May 27, 1986, accomplishes the same purpose.
Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House Bill 757.
Sincerely,
Harry Hughes
