Deadlock on presidential disability ends in Congress
Conferees reach a constitutional amendment plan on presidential disability and succession. Congress would have 21 days to decide if the vice president may resume duties after a president disability dispute, with a provision to fill a vacancy in the vice presidency by nomination and majority approval. The move follows past crises including Eisenhower's 1953 heart attack and Kennedy's 1963 assassination.
