Senate rejects Obama veto of Saudi Sept 11 bill

WASHINGTON The U.S. Senate overwhelmingly rejected on Wednesday President Barack Obama's veto of legislation allowing relatives of the victims of the Sept. 11 attacks to sue Saudi Arabia's government.
As voting continued, the count was 87-0 against the veto. The measure next goes to the House of Representatives, which is due to vote later on Wednesday. If two-thirds of House members also support the "Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act," it would be the first veto override of Obama's eight-year presidency.

Obama knows he is gone in three months...

The Senators know they are up for reelection

How ironic. The first and only item with which I have agreed with Obama will be overridden by Congress.

Apparently he failed to adequately bribe or strong arm Democratic senators as he had done on the Iran deal.
