Lawmakers are considering overriding Gov. Tate Reeves’ veto of a bill to provide low-interest loans to communities hit by a winter ice storm, Mississippi Today reported.
Mississippi Today reported that Reeves vetoed the winter-storm aid bill and accused Senate staff of criminal conduct; the outlet described that accusation as false.
The story appears in Mississippi Explained, the outlet’s weekly news quiz. The quiz asks readers: “How can lawmakers override a governor’s veto?” Mississippi Today invited readers to email answers to newsletter@mississippitoday.org with a first name and last initial for a mention in the next quiz post.
Mississippi Today said last week’s quiz answer was the line-item veto. The outlet also named Jon A. as last week’s winner and invited readers to sign up for The Today, its daily newsletter, for more quizzes and updates.
