Our thought for today is from Psalm 25:21: "May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you."
Let us pray. Almighty God, source of all wisdom and strength, grant to these Representatives the judgment to think and do what is good for Your people. Sustain them in their discussions and support them as they boldly work to preserve the integrity of their office and this Assembly. Bless our Nation, State, and all those leaders who guide us. Protect our defenders of freedom, at home and abroad, as they protect us. Heal the wounds, those seen and those hidden, of our brave warriors. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer. Amen.

R. 319, H. 3790--ORDERED PRINTED IN THE JOURNAL

The SPEAKER ordered the following Veto printed in the Journal:

June 27, 2012
The Honorable Robert W. Harrell, Jr.
Speaker of the House of Representatives
Statehouse, Second Floor
Columbia, South Carolina 29201

Dear Mr. Speaker and Members of the House,

I hereby veto and return without my approval R. 319, H. 3790 (Word version), a local bill creating the Bamberg County Water and Sewer Authority wholly located in Bamberg County.

Since the beginning of my Administration, I have been clear that I will veto local legislation that is clearly unconstitutional. H. 3790 affects only Bamberg County and therefore is unconstitutional - violating the Home Rule provision of our State Constitution, Article VIII, Section 7.

Every member of the General Assembly is expected to vote on all legislation, including local bills. I believe members who fail to vote are supporting the violation of our constitution that we have sworn to uphold. Therefore, I ask that you stop the practice of passing unconstitutional local legislation and help preserve and protect our State Constitution by sustaining this veto.

For too long, the General Assembly has involved itself in entirely local issues like providing water and sewer services to county and municipal residents, which violate Home Rule. Accordingly, I would ask the General Assembly to send me a bill devolving individual delegations' authority relating to single county special purpose districts to county governing bodies, as our State Constitution intended almost 40 years ago.

For these reasons, I am vetoing R. 319, H. 3790.

Sincerely,
Nikki R. Haley
Governor

The Conference Report was adopted and a message was ordered sent to the Senate accordingly.

STATEMENT FOR THE JOURNAL

I voted for the package of Bills that made up the 2012-2013 Budget. I did this because of the tax cut for small businesses. However, I'm troubled by many of the earmarks that are in the Bills and some of the increases in fees and other spending increases. I'm writing the Governor to ask for vetoes of these items.

Rep. Rick Quinn

STATEMENT FOR THE JOURNAL

Although there are many items within the State Appropriation Conference Report that I support, I voted against the Conference Report because it fails to fulfill our constitutional mandate to provide at least a minimally adequate public education. Moreover, it fails to establish a plan to meet that most important obligation for the future.

Rep. James E. Smith, Jr.
