Governor Pawlenty vetoed Chapter 88 on May 19, 2005. The accompanying letter acknowleded that

Tax to transportation needs" and that it "will go forward
notwithstanding my veto because constitutional amendments are not
subject to veto."

Unlike counting full vetoes, the counting of line item vetoes is
inherently arbitrary. Library staff used these guidelines. If a lump-
sum appropriation was broken down into several component items and
the entire lump sum was vetoed, it was counted as one item.
Appropriations divided into separate amounts for two fiscal years
were also counted as one item.
