Checks On Congress By Vetoes
Washington, June 21 NEA The record of the 80th Congress shows President Truman vetoing more than 125 bills since April 1945. Many private relief measures and major policy questions were affected including the Taft Hartley veto and postwar OPA extension. Congress overrode some taxes and social security bills, while others faced potential pocket vetoes as adjournment nears. Fulbright proposed a partisan succession plan that would have shifted both legislative and executive power, a scenario now seen as speculative.
