(R502) S. 1037 -- Senators Leventis and Washington: AN ACT TO AMEND SECTION 16-17-510, AS AMENDED, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO THE OFFENSE OF ENTICING AN ENROLLED CHILD FROM ATTENDANCE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, SO AS TO CREATE A FIRST OFFENSE VIOLATION OF A FINE OF NOT LESS THAN FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS OR IMPRISONMENT FOR NOT LESS THAN THIRTY DAYS, OR BOTH, AND A SECOND OR SUBSEQUENT OFFENSE VIOLATION OF NOT LESS THAN ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS OR IMPRISONMENT FOR NOT LESS THAN TWO YEARS, OR BOTH.
June 18, 1996
Mr. President and Members of the Senate:
I am hereby returning without my approval S. 1037, R. 502, an Act:
TO AMEND SECTION 16-17-510, AS AMENDED, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO THE OFFENSE OF ENTICING AN ENROLLED CHILD FROM ATTENDANCE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, SO AS TO CREATE A FIRST OFFENSE VIOLATION OF A FINE OF NOT LESS THAN FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS OR IMPRISONMENT FOR NOT LESS THAN THIRTY DAYS, OR BOTH, AND A SECOND OR SUBSEQUENT OFFENSE VIOLATION OF NOT LESS THAN ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS OR IMPRISONMENT FOR NOT LESS THAN TWO YEARS, OR BOTH.
At a time when consistent, quality eduction and individual responsibility have never been more crucial, we must as leaders do everything we can to convey that message to our young people. This bill sends the wrong message by reducing the penalties against those who encourage our children to skip school. Instead, we must reaffirm to all South Carolinians our commitment to our children's education and safety.
While I understand that the intent of this Bill is to enable these cases to be heard in magistrates' court in order to have a quicker resolution, this could have been accomplished without decreasing the penalty contained in current law.
For the above reasons, I am vetoing S. 1037, R. 502.
Sincerely,
David M. Beasley
