House fails to override Ford veto on housing bill
The House failed to achieve the two thirds needed to override President Ford's veto of a 1.35 billion housing bill by a 268 to 157 vote. Democrats argued the measure would revive home building, support 400,000 new houses and 800,000 jobs via subsidies and mortgage aid while Ford touted alternative GNMA mortgage purchases and urged further funding.
