Did Perry Veto the Texas Dream act?

I suppose it would have looked better on paper. Wouldn’t have meant much. 181/4

Can the legislature override a governor’s veto?

Yes, overriding a governor’s veto requires a vote of two-thirds of the members present in the chamber from which the legislation originated, and a vote of two-thirds of the members in the opposite chamber Texas Constitution Article IV, Section 14). The legislature cannot override a governor’s veto after the session ends. Top

I don’t care if Perry vetoed the Texas Dream act or not, he’s a closet liberal (Not even really closet, since he used to be a professed Democrat). I was responding to a poster who attempted to say that Bachmann, who proposed a budget amendment to limit in state tuition to only legal persons (that failed), was the same as Perry who is touting how only those who draw illegals to invade our sovereign nation have a heart.

I personally don’t support either one of these candidates for President (I will NEVER support Rick Perry, and I don’t think Bachmann will make it past the primary), but they are nothing alike in principle, nor in practice.
