key term
The '''line-item veto''' is the power of the top executive in government, either the president or a state governor, to sign a budget into law while striking out (lining out) certain expense items that the executive disfavors. This is favored by [[conservatives]] to reduce overall spending, but the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] held it to be unconstitutional at the [[federal]] level. Many state governors have this power.
