VETO MESSAGE ON SB 5024

May 11, 2015

To the Honorable President and Members,
The Senate of the State of Washington

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am returning herewith, without my approval as to Sections 19, 25, 48, 49, and 127, Senate Bill No. 5024 entitled:

"AN ACT Relating to conforming amendments made necessary by reorganizing and streamlining central service functions, powers, and duties of state government."

The following sections contain conflicting or double amendments to sections of law amended in legislation I have already signed into law and are not necessary:

Section 19 amends RCW 19.27A.020, which was also amended in House Bill No. 1011, already signed into law.

Section 25 amends RCW 27.48.040, which was also amended in Senate Bill No. 5176, already signed into law.

Sections 48 and 49 amend RCW 39.35C.050 and 39.35C.090, which were also amended in Senate Bill No. 5075, already signed into law.

Section 127 decodifies RCW 43.19.533, which was repealed in Senate Bill No. 5075, already signed into law.

For these reasons I have vetoed Sections 19, 25, 48, 49, and 127 of Senate Bill No. 5024.

With the exception of Sections 19, 25, 48, 49, and 127, Senate Bill No. 5024 is approved.

Respectfully submitted,
Jay Inslee
Governor
