Brad Henry has wrapped up consideration of bills sent to him by the 2009 Legislature, a year in which he broke his own veto record. Henry signed the last of the measures into law Friday, including legislation to create a chief information officer to oversee technology at state agencies. In all, 480 bills and resolutions were sent to Henry for consideration. Working with a Republican-controlled Legislature for the first time in his two terms, he vetoed 21 bills, the most in any single year he has been in office. Henry also used the line-item veto power to nix a provision that would have appropriated $2.5 million to the Oklahoma Institute for Disaster and Emergency Medicine. ___ Information from: The Oklahoman, http://www.newsok.com
