FARMINGTON — A day after Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly vetoed legislation to amend the Navajo Housing Authority Board of Commissioners, a bill to override the veto was posted on the website for the Navajo Nation Council.
Shelly vetoed the Navajo Nation Housing Authority Reform Act on Wednesday because the amendments were confusing, unclear and uncertain, according to a memorandum from the president to Speaker Johnny Naize and delegates.
The council passed the amendments during the fall session last month. The amendments would change the appointment, terms, powers and removal process for the board.
