Governor Sues State Legislature Over Emergency Powers Bill

Governor Sues State Legislature Over Emergency Powers Bill INDIANAPOLIS–Governor Holcomb is suing to overturn a new law allowing legislators to call themselves into session.

Legislators haven’t tried to use the law yet, but Holcomb says its “very existence” creates uncertainty about the operation of state government. Legislators overrode the veto earlier this month. The law allows the 16-member Legislative Council to call legislators back for an “emergency session” to review a governor’s emergency declarations.
