To the Honorable Members of

The Illinois House of Representatives,

100th General Assembly:

Today I veto House Bill 5682 from the 100th General Assembly, which

This bill is a duplicate of Senate Bill 3191, which I signed into law as Public Act 100-0889, making this bill moot.

Therefore, pursuant to Section 9(b) of Article IV of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby return House Bill 5682, entitled “AN ACT concerning State government” with the foregoing objection, vetoed in its entirety.

Sincerely,

Bruce Rauner

GOVERNOR
