Congress Overrules Ford on Job Bill Enactment in 1976
Congress overrides President Ford on two key bills a $4.95 billion public works jobs package and a $1.5 billion military construction authorization. The public works measure clears with a 310 to 96 House vote and a 73 to 24 Senate tally, while the military bill passes 270 to 131 in the House. Supporters tout 200000 construction jobs and 90000 state local posts. Ford calls it election year pork and warns it won’t create lasting jobs. The bills aim to counter unemployment ahead of the 1976 election as Mondale and Democratic leaders press for job creation. The override moves the measures toward final Senate action.
