Second Lawsuit on Line-Item Vetoes Has Narrower Focus
A challenge to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's (R) line-item vetoes filed by health clinics and advocates for people with disabilities and battered women specifically targets $316 million in cuts to health and social service programs. A similar suit that Senate President Pro Tempore Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento) filed Monday targets all of the line-item vetoes.
