House Approves Labor/HHS- Next Stop, President
by Matt Lewis, 11/9/2007
Yesterday, the House approved Labor/HHS conference report on its own by 274-141 (roll call). If 3 nay votes switch, it'd enough to override a presidential veto. Now the bill will be sent to the President, though its not clear exactly when that will happen. The President then will most likely veto it, and the onus will be on the House to override it.
Update: See this Coalition on Human Needs pamphlet for the budget cuts a veto-sustaining vote would be supporting.
