House to vote on overriding two Trump vetoes
House lawmakers are expected to vote this week on overriding two vetoes by President Trump. At the end of December, the president rejected two GOP-backed bills that had bipartisan support. It was the first time he used his veto pen in his second term, One of the bills, for a drinking water pipeline, was sponsored by Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert of Colorado — a longtime Trump ally who broke with the president over releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files. While the overrides could pass in the House, it’s unclear if there would be enough votes in the Senate.
