Newsom signaled through a series of legislative veto messages this fall that he anticipated “lower-than-expected revenues” and wanted the Legislature to “remain disciplined when it comes to spending.”

Gov. Laura Kelly has the opportunity to veto these bad bills, and a legislative veto session is scheduled for next month.

“A legislative veto in the context of a statute delegating emergency powers might be a good idea. It might be a bad idea. But it is not a constitutional idea under our current charter,” Wecht wrote.

Marion said the General Assembly so far this year has demonstrated it’s capable of acting on substantive legislation early in the session, citing action on a proposed ban on 3D guns, and removing a “legislative veto” provision from state marijuana regulations as examples.

“When you say something will become law, absent a legislative veto, it’s the same as passing a law.”
