To the Honorable Members of

The Illinois House of Representatives,

100th General Assembly:

 

Today I veto House Bill 4754 from the 100th General Assembly, which allows the balance of an ABLE account to be transferred to a designated beneficiary upon the death of an account holder.

 

I fully support this legislation, and have already signed a duplicate bill, Senate Bill 2660.

 

Therefore, pursuant to Section 9(b) of Article IV of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby return House Bill 4754, entitled “AN ACT concerning State government,” with the foregoing objections, vetoed in its entirety.

 

Sincerely,

 

Bruce Rauner

GOVERNOR
