SENATE EXECUTIVE MESSAGE NO. 75
The Honorable Richard Romero and
Members of the Senate
Executive-Legislative Building
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87503
Honorable President and Members of the Senate:
I have this day VETOED and am returning SENATE BILL 740, as amended, enacted by the Forty-Fifth Legislature, First Session, 2001.
This
bill would require the state Motor Vehicle Division to issue special license
plates to retired members of the New Mexico National Guard. As I have stated previously, I am generally
opposed to the creation of special license plates for New Mexico’s motor
vehicles, except when they provide information to other motorists and law
enforcement that the driver may require special consideration in emergency
situations, such as firefighters.
Sincerely,
Gary E. Johnson
Governor
