THE CHAIRMAN: How about the item veto?
|
2
|
SENATOR HUGHES: I wouldn't be in favor of it,
|
3
|
except in capital improvements.
|
4
|
THE CHAIRMAN: You would be in favor of it
|
5
|
in capital improvements?
|
6
|
SENATOR HUGHES: Yes, sir.
|
7
|
DELEGATE KIRCHER: Suppose we put a 30-day
|
8
|
limitation on the Governor to veto or take some action
|
9
|
on bills and make them into law? As we had this year,
|
10
|
the Governor came down with bronchial pneumonia and had
|
11
|
a bad lung or something. Suppose we had a Governor who
|
12
|
would suffer a heart attack two days after the General
|
13
|
Assembly adjourned. Would everything the General
|
14
|
Assembly did go down the drain?
|
15
|
DELEGATE HANDEL: No. It would become law,
|
16
|
unless he vetoed it.
|
17
|
THE CHAIRMAN: Gentlemen, we said we were
|
18
|
going to quit at 9:45 and we are a Commission of our
|
19
|
word. You were wonderful to be here today.
|
20
|
DELEGATE MANDEL; You see the benefit of
|
21
|
having a constitutional limit on sessions?
