Governor Cuomo Vetoes 123 Legislative Additions to the FY 2020 Enacted Budget


Governor Andrew M. Cuomo announced the submission of 123 vetoes in accordance with Article VII of the State Constitution, eliminating pages of unnecessary language from the FY 2020 Enacted Budget.  

  The vetoes include 51 appropriations pertaining to state agency operations. Twenty-six appropriations are more than seven years old and have had no disbursements over the most recent seven-year period. Twenty-five appropriations are fully expended and one due to fiscal impacts. Six appropriations are vetoed on constitutional grounds, six appropriations are duplicative of other reappropriations for the same purpose, and eight were previously vetoed.

  The full list of vetoes is available here.
