SB344

Revise process for governor's veto receipt and delivery to the legislature

Complete·5/5/25

Montana SB344 revises the process for the governor's veto receipt and delivery to the legislature.

Montana SB344 amends the process for handling a governor's veto when the legislature is not in session. If the legislature is not in session, the governor returns the vetoed bill to the secretary of state, who then mails a copy of the bill and veto message to each legislator. Legislators must vote within 30 days, and if two-thirds approve, the bill becomes law.
