Senate fails to override Ford veto on oil price bill
The Senate could not secure enough votes to sustain President Ford's veto of a six month oil price control extension. If upheld, price controls would end gradually, likely raising gasoline and living costs. Experts project mixed impacts on inflation and jobs, with debates continuing about a comprehensive energy policy.

The Senate is expected to join the House in overriding President Ford's veto of a 7.9 billion education appropriations bill. If enacted, it would be the second time this session a bill passed over a veto. The House approved 379 to 41. The measure exceeds Ford's request by 1.4 billion and targets spending in the current year while allowing larger outlays in education.
