estates of persons who died after June 30, 1989 but before

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 298.

This bill will include persons receiving Aid to Families with
Dependent Children among the telephone subscribers eligible for
telephone lifeline service. It also adds a reporting
requirement.

House Bill 412, which was passed by the General Assembly and
signed by me on May 25, 1989, accomplishes the same purpose.
Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate Bill 298.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor

Senate Bill No. 298

AN ACT concerning

lifeline service to include persons receiving Aid to
Families with Dependent Children among the telephone
subscribers eligible for telephone lifeline service;
providing for a delayed effective date; adding a certain
reporting requirement; and generally relating to telephone
lifeline service of a telephone company.

BY repealing and reenacting, with amendments,
