Honorable Speaker and Members of the House:

I have this day VETOED and am returning HOUSE BILL 499, enacted by the Forty-Fifth Legislature, First Session, 2001.

This bill would enact law to provide for the eradication of the pink bollworm. I have signed into law Senate Bill 484, which is identical to this bill, creating a conflict and making it unnecessary.

Sincerely,
