Proponents of the line item veto argue that it enhances executive power by allowing the president to eliminate specific spending items in appropriations bills, thus promoting fiscal responsibility and reducing wasteful government spending. Conversely, opponents contend that it undermines the legislative process and the balance of power by granting the president unilateral authority to alter legislation, potentially leading to partisan abuses and diminished congressional oversight. Additionally, critics worry it could encourage presidents to wield this power to extract concessions from Congress in exchange for approving broader budget measures.
