Congress Overrides Ford Veto to Fund School Lunch Program
Congress votes to override President Ford's veto of the school lunch bill with broad margins in both chambers. The new law expands free lunches to children of unemployed parents, fixes the cost at 20 cents for a family of four with income up to 9,500, and marks the third override this year prioritizing education, food, and health. Ford criticized the subsidy as too costly for better off families.
