Fallin's veto of the measure left off a crucial word that Cockroft, chairman of the committee, is concerned might have had the effect of vetoing the entire budget, which would create a massive legal crisis if it's the case.

Not to alarm anyone...but there’s a slight chance no state agency has a legal budget right now.— Phil Cross (@philsnews) December 12, 2017
That’s what Rep Cockroft was getting at. Because the governor failed to write “Veto” next to Section 170 she might have accidentally repealed entire budget.
