To the Honorable Members of the

Illinois House of Representatives

95th General Assembly

            Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto House Bill 1242, entitled “AN ACT concerning revenue.” This bill creates a corporate tax loophole in a tight fiscal year.

            For this reason, I hereby veto and return House Bill 1242.

Sincerely,

ROD R. BLAGOJEVICH

Governor
