Holt votes to sustain Reagan veto on textile bill
Maryland House member Marjorie Holt joined one Republican to uphold President Reagan’s veto of a bill shielding domestic textiles from foreign competition. The rest of Maryland’s delegation, including Beverly Byron and Michael Barnes, supported overriding the veto amid a close vote. Byron lamented the near two thirds threshold and textile imports impacting her district. Across the Mid-Atlantic, party lines varied on overrides with votes from Virginia, West Virginia and Pennsylvania noted.
