Sanford vetoes bill on Ports Authority board, backs loan access
Sanford argued for continued consumer access to a $550 loan and proposed a data base lenders would check. He noted a day wait between loans for the first seven and two days for subsequent loans. He vetoed a bill to curb his power to remove Ports Authority board members, saying it reduces agency accountability.
