Description

Book Synopsis
Examine the ways that US Congress has used the legislative veto over the past 80 years. Michael J. Berry argues that, since the US Supreme Court declared the legislative veto unconstitutional in Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) v. Chadha (1983), Congress has strategically modified its use of the veto to give more power to Appropriations Committees.

Trade Review
The Modern Legislative Veto is an exciting book, one that I have looked forward to for a long time. A discussion of the development of the legislative veto is timely and very important.” —Mathew D. McCubbins, Ruth F. De Varney Professor of Political Science and Professor of Law, Duke University

""This book promises to be the definitive work on the legislative veto. It covers the legislative veto at both the federal and state levels, which makes it unique.”
—Erik J. Engstrom, University of California, Davis
