The VETO Act
Verification of Executive Temperance Options Act
Section I
Purpose of the act
To clearly define the veto powers of the President.
Section II
Addressing legislation
If a bill has been passed with majorities in both legislative chambers, it will be sent to the President for his signature for a maximum of one day.
The President has four options:
sign the bill,
veto the bill,
exercise a line-item veto,
let the bill become law without the President's signature.
Section III
The veto
To veto a bill, the President may simply send the bill back to the legislature with a veto message describing why they rejected it.
The bill is then considered further by the legislature. If the bill is not amended or resent, then it may be dropped by the legislature.
A veto may be overridden with a 75% majority in both legislative chambers.
When a veto is overridden, it passes into law without the President's signature.
Section IV
The line-item veto
The President may exercise a line-item veto, and veto individual provisions of a bill.
The legislature may override a specific line-item veto with a simple majority in both chambers.
