Lawmakers consider override of governor’s vetoes

HARTFORD — State lawmakers returned to the Capitol Monday to decide whether they will override any of the seven vetoes Gov. Dannel P. Malloy issued since the end of the legislative session in early May. The House and Senate met Monday morning in caucus to discuss what to do. A veto can be overturned by a two-thirds vote by each chamber. Many of the bills Malloy vetoed passed both chambers with overwhelming support, prompting some lawmakers to call for overrides. Perhaps most controversially, Malloy vetoed a bill that made changes to a state municipal aid board in order to try to avert a future Hartford bail-out situation.
