 governor,  or  the  acting governor, shall have certified, under [his or
 her] SUCH PERSON'S hand and the seal of the state, the  facts  which  in
 [his  or her] THE GOVERNOR'S, OR THE ACTING GOVERNOR'S, opinion necessi-

 of  the members elected to each branch of the legislature; NOR SHALL ANY

 bill,  no  amendment thereof shall be allowed, and the question upon its
 final passage shall be taken immediately thereafter, and  the  ayes  and
 nays entered on the journal.
   §  2. Resolved (if the Senate concur), That the foregoing amendment be
 referred to the first regular legislative session  convening  after  the
