State legislators are expected to reconvene later this month to push through several bills that Gov. Edwards vetoed after the last legislative session. Photo from September 2020. Louisiana state lawmakers cut short the state’s first ever veto session Wednesday after the Louisiana House of Representatives failed to override Gov. John Bel Edwards’ veto of legislation that would have banned transgender girls from school athletic competitions. The measure failed on a 68-30 vote, falling two votes short of the 70 needed to override a gubernatorial veto. After the effort failed, and it was apparent that Republican legislative leaders could not marshall the votes needed to override any of Edwards’ vetoes, Louisiana lawmakers decided to end the session four days ahead of schedule.
