Last month, state representatives for the first time in 40 years. They actually overrode 11 of Gov. John Kasich鈥檚 47 vetoes. Senators are now deciding which of those overrides to vote on. And they may ask the House to consider overriding more vetoes as well.
of Medina says not all of the 11 House overrides so far may be voted on at the session on Aug. 23. But he says some will be. And he鈥檚 also hoping the House will eventually override Kasich鈥檚 veto of the freeze on enrollment in .
鈥淚鈥檓 in favor of the freeze 鈥� it was actually my amendment. But there are a number of things that the House has done already that they鈥檝e sent to us that we鈥檒l be taking up.鈥�
Obhof says one of those overrides the Senate will consider is Kasich鈥檚 veto of the plan to require his administration ask for permission twice a year from a small panel of lawmakers to spend some Medicaid expansion money.
