From a press release:
Veto Override Expected to Fail
January 23, 2008 - The U.S. House of Representatives will vote today in an attempt to override President Bush's third veto of the now controversial State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). The president has previously vetoed two other SCHIP proposals. Popular consensus remains that today's congressional attempt to override the president will again fail, for a third time.
Last month, President Bush did sign into law a bill extending the current SCHIP program until March 31, 2009.
Once the final vote is available, an update will be sent to all IPCPR members. I encourage you to share this news with your customers, family, and friends.
