Don't governors veto bills that were voted on by the people all the time ?
Can you maybe explain this to me cause I'm definitely confused.
Sometimes ballots are binding, sometimes they introduce a bill automatically, sometimes they're basically just a poll
For California, they're binding - if it passes, there's a law that goes into effect
So it depends on the state or how the bill is being presented ? I thought he previously vetoed a similar bill. Or maybe I'm thinking of someone else.
Well he can veto bills from the legislature. And he has vetoed a lot of progressive legislation. I don't remember a specific wealth tax but maybe I missed it.
