I think the answer would be "A" because Governors<span> play two broad roles in relation to state legislatures. First, they </span>may be empowered to call special legislative sessions<span>, provided in most cases that the purpose and agenda for the sessions are set in advance. Second, and more familiarly, </span>governors coordinate and work with state legislatures in:
****approval of state budgets and appropriations;**** (This is why the answer is "A")
enactment of state legislation;
confirmation of executive and judicial appointments; and
legislative oversight of executive branch functions.
