S-CHIP Veto Stands

The House has failed to override the high-profile Presidential veto of
the State Children's Health Insurance Program. S-CHIP gained the
support of 273 members of Congress, but fell nine short of the number
needed to override the veto. This, despite the legislation initially
passing with the two-thirds majority needed to push the bill into law.
This time around, the legislation didn't gain the support of any
additional Republicans.

But as FSRN's Leigh Ann Caldwell reports, this debate isn't yet over.
