The Honorable Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.
President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis MD 21401
Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 625 — Vehicle Laws - Uninsured Motorist Penalties - Distribution
of Fees.
Senate Bill 625 provides that the Vehicle Theft Prevention Fund shall receive
$2,180,000 annually from uninsured motorist penalties collected by the State. Under
the provisions of Senate Bill 323, the Budget Reconciliation and Financing Act of
2002, the General Assembly also dedicated $2,000,000 in uninsured motorist penalty
fees for the Vehicle Theft Prevention Fund. I will sign Senate Bill 323 into law on May
16, 2002. The net effect of Senate Bill 625, therefore, is to increase funding for the
Vehicle Theft Prevention Fund by $180,000. The intent of this legislation is to replace
the $180,000 in salvage vehicle inspection fee revenues that would have been taken
from the Vehicle Theft Prevention Fund under the provisions of House Bill 471. Since
I am vetoing that legislation today, there is no need to sign Senate Bill 625 into law.
For the above reason, I have vetoed Senate Bill 625.
Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
Senate Bill No. 625

providing for the termination of certain provisions of this Act; and generally
relating to the distribution of uninsured motorist penalty fees.
BY repealing and reenacting, without amendments,
