Relating to: restricting the governor’s partial veto authority to only rejecting entire bill sections of an appropriation bill that are capable of separate enactment and reducing appropriations in a bill (first consideration).

SJR 11 proposes a constitutional amendment to limit a governor's partial veto power over appropriation bills. It would restrict the governor to only rejecting entire bill sections that can stand alone as complete, workable laws, rather than allowing them to modify individual words or combine parts of sentences within a section. This change specifically affects how governors can amend or reject budget-related legislation during the approval process. The amendment aims to prevent governors from creating "new words" or "new sentences" by picking and choosing parts of existing bill language.
