This bill has been vetoed.​

Explanation:

• The power of Judicial Review already exists derived from verdicts in which the courts have established that law can be nullified in the ruling of a case.
• This amendment would provide an avenue for Judges to pick and choose on which legislation and policies they deem unconstitutional. Therefore you can assume there will be implicit bias in which and when something is reviewed. The courts are to interpret law as it is brought to them, not to pick and choose themselves.
• It should be a matter of both parties in a case presenting their argument, and the Judge making their ruling on that matter. It is the ability to hear both parties which is pertinent to the justice system here.
