AGO Opinion Topics: EFFECTIVE DATE LAW WHERE LEGISLATURE OVERRIDES VETO

Where a bill which is subject to referendum is vetoed by the governor and that veto is later overridden by the legislature, the act will not become effective until ninety days after the adjournment of the session at which the veto was overridden; accordingly, chapter 1, Laws of 1973, 2nd Ex. Sess. (House Bill No. 356), which changes the date of Veterans' Day to November 11, will not take effect until December 14, 1973.
