The Honorable Casper R. Taylor, Jr.
Speaker of the House
State House
Annapolis MD 21401

Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today vetoed House Bill 886 - Maryland Social Workers Act - Revision.

This bill revises certain provisions of current law pertaining to the practice of social work.

Senate Bill 693, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me today, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House Bill 886.

Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
