>I do not know of any. Do you know of any he could have vetoed without also vetoing other important legislation?<

If I'm not mistaken, Presidents beginning with Bill Clinton have access to the line-item veto.

It was struck down by SCOTUS back during the Clinton Admin.

My understanding was that the line-item veto did not get passed, although Clinton was in favor of it. Of course, during Clinton's time, I was not as politically aware. Do you have a source so that I could 'catch up'?
