Скачать или смотреть Roy Cooper has vetoed more than bills than any governor in NC history

On Monday, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper vetoed the Emergency Powers Accountability Act, that would have limited his emergency powers by requiring that any state of emergency lasting longer than one week would have to have the support of the council of the state, which is currently dominated by Republicans.

Cooper, a Democrat, said in a statement, "Critical decisions about stopping deadly diseases, or responding to any other emergency, should stay with experts in public health and safety, not a committee of partisan politicians."

Before the veto from Cooper, State Sen. Jim Perry tweeted that Cooper had used his veto power 64 times and that the veto itself has only been used 99 times in state history.

THE QUESTION: Has Gov. Roy Cooper vetoed more bills than any other governor in North Carolina history?

THE ANSWER: Yes, Gov. Cooper has used the veto power more than any other governor in state history. The ability is relatively new, with North Carolina becoming the last state in the U.S. to give governors the power to veto, according to political science professor Dr. Michael Bitzer. #VERIFY #ncpol #WakeUpCLT
