journal article Show State & Local Government Review Vol. 26, No. 1 (Winter, 1994) , pp. 38-45 (8 pages) Published By: Sage Publications, Inc. https://www.jstor.org/stable/4355081 Abstract Discussion of an item veto power for the president of the United States has focused on its potential impact as an instrument of fiscal control. In this empirical study of Texas governors who hold a similar power, the authors find that the veto power in Texas has proven since 1940 to be ineffective in curtailing spending. The legislature's control over the number of expenditures in a single line item and over the timing of the passage of a state budget effectively negates use of the item veto as a meaningful tool of fiscal control.

Does the line-item veto result in substantial reductions in annual appropriation totals? What reasons do governors provide for their use of the line-item veto? This study analyzes line-item vetoes cast in 10 southern states over the 1973-92 period. Information from each state is analyzed in relation to characteristics of state budgetary processes and political environments. The study uses the first collection of in-depth, multistate data on the use of the line-item veto power. The use of the line-item veto varies greatly among the states. The non-use of the line-item veto is linked with biennial budgets, less itemized appropriations, large numbers of appropriation bills, same-party control of the legislative and executive branches, and limited gubernatorial terms in office. The only factor associated with high usage of the line-item veto is divided party control; however, divided party control is not associated with great amounts of appropriation reduction.
