As MALC reported on Friday, Governor Baker has vetoed $256 million in spending for the 2017 Proposed State Budget.<\/p>\n

The next step in the State Budget Process is for the Legislature (House and Senate) to decide whether or not to override the Governor’s some of or all his line item vetoes and\/or his reduction in funding for\u00a0line item budgets.<\/p>\n

The legislature has until the end of July to override his vetoes with roll call votes (which means both the House and Senate have to be in what are\u00a0called formal sessions to override the Governor’s vetoes\/reductions in spending).<\/p>\n

In the coming days, MALC will inform you on what advocacy you can do to encourage the House & Senate to override\/restore funding to the budget line items listed\u00a0below.<\/p>\n
