218D.685 Inaction or veto by Governor after adjournment of Legislature; reconsideration of vetoed bill at next regular session; delivery of bill to Secretary of State if veto overridden.
1. If the Legislature, by its final adjournment, prevents the return of a bill within 5 days after delivery to the Governor, Sundays excepted, the bill becomes a law without the Governor’s signature, unless within 10 days next after the adjournment, Sundays excepted, the Governor files the bill with the Governor’s objections thereto with the Secretary of State.
2. The Secretary of State shall lay the bill before the Legislature at its next regular session in like manner as if it had been returned by the Governor directly to the House in which it originated. If the bill receives the vote of two-thirds of the members elected to each House of the Legislature, upon a vote taken by yeas and nays, to be entered upon the journals of each House, the bill becomes a law and must be delivered by the Legislative Counsel directly to the Secretary of State for filing, who shall receipt to the Legislative Counsel therefor.
