S.5 Heads for a Veto

Yesterday, the House of Representatives passed S.5 with a vote of 247-176. By passing S.5, the Democratic leadership has set things up for a veto.

President Bush has promised to veto the bill and if the Senate votes to override, the House will do the same but yesterday's vote was 35 votes short of the margin needed for an override.

Something tells me that we've not seen the last of this legislation even if it doesn't make it past the veto.

And if anyone asks what's the big deal about electing pro-life members of the House, this is why. And if someone says the presidential election is no big deal, point to this and tell them to think again.
