Similarly, in Pennsylvania, Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro also got creative with his veto power in a state with a divided legislature. Shapiro negotiated an expansion of public school funding. But in order to pass the bill through the Republican Senate, he also had to whip votes for a controversial compromise that would subsidize private schools with voucher programs.
