Heil Partial Veto Upheld By Wisconsin Supreme Court

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled Governor Heil could exercise a partial veto on appropriations after legislative adjournment, upholding the 1939 old age pension law and confirming the governor’s power to veto parts of bills. Justice Joseph Martin wrote the unanimous opinion, noting the six day window after presentation and that omitted sections could not become law. The decision also supported partial vetoes on a general relief bill and an omnibus appropriations measure. Zimmerman’s challenge over the pension funds was dismissed as the court found no policy alteration by the veto. The ruling preserves proposed increases in county pension aids and authorization for dependent children aids while maintaining total old age pension funds between seven and eight million dollars.
