Michigan House of Representatives
State Capitol Building
Lansing, Michigan 48909
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Today I have vetoed and am returning to you herewith, Enrolled House Bill 6027.
The proposed reporting of on-duty deaths to the State Fire Marshal unnecessarily duplicates functions and responsibilities already performed by an agency of state government. Such deaths must already be reported to the Bureau of Safety and Regulation in the Department of Consumer and Industry Services. There is no need for local fire chiefs to be reporting to two state agencies. If the State Fire Marshal has a programmatic need for this data, it can be obtained by working cooperatively with the Department of Consumer and Industry Services. The investigation of a death that would occur under the bill would duplicate the investigation conducted by the Department of Consumer and Industry Services.
For these reasons, I am returning Enrolled House Bill 6027 without signature.
Sincerely,
John Engler
Governor
January 2, 2001
Michigan House of Representatives
State Capitol Building
Lansing, Michigan 48913
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Today I have vetoed and am returning to you herewith, Enrolled House Bill 4532.
Enrolled House Bill 4532 would amend the Michigan Penal Code to allow a person to carry or transport an unloaded pistol in a wrapper or container in the trunk of a vehicle for any reason. It would also allow a person of any age and for any reason to transport an unloaded pistol in the passenger compartment of a sport utility vehicle, pickup truck, van and other vehicles not equipped with a trunk if the weapon is not readily accessible to the occupant(s). The term "readily accessible" is not defined and is ambiguous at best.
More importantly, the bill would eliminate existing requirements that a pistol be transported only for explicit lawful purposes. Currently, there are strict guidelines for transporting weapons in a vehicle. Michigan State Police Uniform Crime Report data reveals that during the past three years, over 18,000 suspects were arrested for a weapons offense. Many of these arrests were for unlawfully carrying a pistol in an automobile. I share the concern with law enforcement officials that this legislation would allow potential criminals to lawfully transport a weapon to the scene of a crime
The bill, if enacted, would also contravene a corresponding provision found in Section 12a(h) of Enrolled House Bill 4530, which I have signed into law this date. That provision provides for the transportation of an unloaded pistol in a locked compartment, not just a wrapper or container as this bill purports.
My veto of this bill does not affect the rights of hunters, range target shooters or concealed weapon permit holders to transport their weapons in a lawful manner as is currently provided by law.
For the above stated reasons, I am returning Enrolled House Bill 4532 without signature.
Sincerely,
John Engler
Governor

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
Today I have signed Enrolled Senate Bill 1170 codifying Michigan court decisions that prohibit a civil action for money damages for the "wrongful life" of an infant as the result of birth control failure or an undiagnosed prenatal disability. This legislation states Michigan's commitment to the belief that the benefits of a child's life always outweigh the cost of raising the child.
However, I am returning to the House of Representatives Enrolled House Bill 4828, and to the Senate Enrolled Senate Bill 645 and Enrolled Senate Bill 794, the effect of which is to impair certain private contracts that provide health insurance coverage for reproductive services.
In doing so I note that persistent questions were raised about the administration, enforcement, cost and constitutionality of this legislation which were not adequately addressed during the abbreviated legislative debate.
For these reasons I am returning Enrolled House Bill 4828 and Enrolled Senate Bills 645 and 794 without signature.
Sincerely,
John Engler
Governor
