Housing bill Waltonington veto forecast
President Ford is expected to veto a $1.2 billion housing bill intended to finance 400000 new homes and shield families from mortgage foreclosures amid the recession. The Senate sent the measure to the White House 72 to 24 with Democrats privately pessimistic about an override, and the House passed it 253 to 155, far from the two-thirds needed. Administration officials call the price tag too high and warn against creating another layer of federal bureaucracy.
