House fails to override ObamaCare veto

The Hill reports:

The House on Tuesday failed to override President Obama’s veto of legislation that would have repealed much of ObamaCare and defunded Planned Parenthood.

The result was expected, given that an override would have required Democratic support to succeed, but Republicans praised the vote as showing what could happen next year if their party wins back the White House.

The veto override failed by a vote of 241 to 186.

Republicans got the bill to the president’s desk under the process known as reconciliation, which allowed the measure to bypass a filibuster and clear the Senate with 51 votes.
