Sanders’ Veto Letter for HB1622

April 14, 2023


To President Pro Tempore Hester and Speaker Shepherd: 

I am returning without my approval House Bill 1622, legislation entitled “To Create the Heart Attack Task Force; and To Provide for the Powers and Duties of the Heart Attack Task Force.” 

This program is duplicative of pre-existing programs in the State of Arkansas, which exists with the Arkansas STEMI Advisory Council, currently housed in the Arkansas Department of Health. Therefore, I am vetoing this legislation.


Sincerely,
Sarah Huckabee Sanders,
Governor of Arkansas
