| VETO MESSAGE ON E2SHB 2630 |
| April 23, 2010 |
| To the Honorable Speaker and Members, |
| The House of Representatives of the State of Washington |
| Ladies and Gentlemen: |
| I am returning herewith, without my approval as to Section 6, Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2630 entitled: |
"AN ACT Relating to creating the opportunity express program." |
| Section 6 is an unnecessary emergency clause. The general fund appropriation to the Opportunity Express Account created in the bill is a Fiscal Year 2011 appropriation. Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2630 can take effect ninety days after the adjournment of the session at which it was enacted and still allow timely transfer of funding to the new account. |
| For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 6 of Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2630. |
| With the exception of Section 6 of Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2630 is approved. |
| Respectfully submitted, |
| Christine Gregoire |
| Governor |
