Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Texas governor has the power of a line-item veto, which allows them to veto specific items in an appropriations bill without vetoing the entire bill. The governor does not have the power of a pocket veto, which is only available to the President of the United States, and does not have the power of a post veto, which is not a real power. While the governor does have the power to threaten a veto, this is not an official power granted to them by the Texas Constitution.
