Riders are most effective when attached to an important bill, such as an Appropriation Bill , because to Veto or postpone such a bill could delay funding to governmental programs, causing serious problems. The practical consequence of this custom is a limitation of the veto power of the Executive . In the United States, the Line Item Veto Act Of 1996 , a law struck down by the United States Supreme Court as Unconstitutional , allowed the President to veto single objectionable items, without affecting the main purpose of bills.
