Prohibit Partial Veto to Increase Tax or Fee Amendment
Plain-English Summary
A legislatively referred constitutional amendment that would prohibit Wisconsin governors from using the state's partial-veto power to create or increase any tax or fee. Wisconsin governors currently have unusually broad partial-veto authority over appropriation bills.
What each outcome does
If approved, the governor could no longer use a partial veto to create a new tax or fee or to raise an existing one; full vetoes and signing remain available.
If rejected, the governor retains the authority to use a partial veto in ways that increase or create taxes and fees, as currently permitted.
