Wednesday the Senate, passed the highway hill ’-over the President's veto by a vote o f 67 to 18. However,Thursday-the House sustain-, ed the President's veto by less- than two votes. The final House vote stood 261- in favor o f overriding the-- eto to 128 against.' However, it takes a two+thirdsfVote for a bill to be passed over the President's yeto.
