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 707.

This bill would establish a special grant program for community
colleges offering licensure programs for health occupations found
by the Secretary of Health and Mental Hygiene to be in short
supply. Under the bill, a community college would receive a
grant of $1,500 for each graduate from these programs in excess
of the number of graduates from the programs during the 1987-1988
academic year. Initially, nursing would be the only health
occupation in short supply for purposes of the bill.
