line item veto

     

In government, the line-item veto is the power of an executive to nullify or "cancel" specific provisions of a bill, usually buget appropriations, without vetoing the entire legislative package. The line-item vetoes are usually subject to the possibility of legislative override as are traditional vetoes.
