Line Item Veto

Categories: Politics | Legal
  • A line-item veto allows a president or governor to eliminate certain specific proposals within a bill (generally budgetary in nature) without vetoing the entire piece of legislation. Congress passed a presidential line-item veto proposal in 1996, but it was struck down by the The U.S. Supreme Court in the case of Clinton v. City of New York.
