“It is this body and the one down the hall who makes the laws.”

Kentucky Senate President Robert Stivers. He was criticizing Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear for vetoing a slew of bills last week. Republicans control both legislative chambers with supermajorities, but in Kentucky only a simple majority is required to override vetoes. Beshear criticized GOP legislators for moving “shell” bills and voting on final versions without sufficient transparency. (Kentucky Lantern)
