VETO LETTERS
HB 187
The Honorable
Clerk of the
State Capitol
Dear
A year ago, I vetoed legislation which would have created commercial surrogacy contracts in

My heart goes out to those who face the tragedies of miscarriage and infertility. The inability to conceive or bear children is a deep wound in our society, unnoticed by most, and suffered by too many.

Governor

RE: Senate Bill No. 418 by Senator
Dear
Senate Bill No. 418 by Senator
The legislation was intended to prohibit copying of military identification cards, which is consistent with federal law. Additionally, the legislation was intended to remove the requirement that valid photo identification be submitted with first-time renewals of vehicle registration. Due to drafting errors, the legislation would allow initial vehicle registration without the submission of valid photo identification.
For these reasons, and at the request of the
Sincerely,
Governor
