Ford hints veto of 1.35 billion housing bill
President Ford signals he will veto the 1.35 billion housing bill after a 75 minute White House briefing with House GOP leaders led by John Rhodes. Rhodes says the measure does not solve the problem and is not well thought out. The bill would subsidize mortgage interest and provide job loss relief, but Ford opposes a new consumer agency and aims to bolster existing protections. The veto could come with a substitute bill.
