Summary

The bill proposes a constitutional amendment to grant the President line-item veto authority, allowing them to reduce specific appropriations in spending bills after they are passed by Congress. Congress would have the opportunity to disapprove such reductions, but only if two-thirds of both chambers vote to do so. The amendment would require ratification by three-fourths of state legislatures within seven years to take effect.

Summary

The bill opposes New York City's proposed Central Business District Tolling Program, which would charge drivers up to $23 per day to enter Manhattan's Central Business District. It argues the toll would impose significant financial burdens on commuters, small businesses, and low-income families, while also potentially increasing congestion in outer boroughs. The resolution recommends halting the program and conducting an economic impact study.
