House Falls Short On Health Law Veto Override
Tuesday's near party-line vote to override Obama's January veto of legislation gutting much of the health law was 241-186, but that fell short of the two-thirds majority needed to reverse a veto. The vote was not expected to be successful, but it provided congressional Republicans more fodder for election-year messaging.
