众议院周四未能推翻唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)总统对共和党支持的法案的两次否决,这些法案在众议院和参议院获得一致通过,未能在任何一次投票中获得必要的三分之二多数。
一项对米科苏基保留区修正案的否决以236票对188票被否决。这项立法将会扩大佛罗里达湿地中与洪水控制相关的Miccosukee部落的保留区。
然而,24名共和党人投票支持推翻否决,这是对他们自己总统的罕见指责。
一项否决否决也以248票对177票、1票在场的表决结果否决了《完成阿肯色州河谷管道法案》。这项立法将为科罗拉多州的农村地区提供清洁的水,由该州强硬派共和党众议员劳伦·博贝特(Lauren Boebert)发起。在那次投票中,35名共和党人投票推翻了对该法案的否决。
这两项没有争议的措施此前都获得了众议院和参议院的一致支持。
参议院需要三分之二的多数才能推翻否决。
特朗普在12月底否决了这些法案,这是他第二个任期的第一项法案。
“够了。我的政府致力于防止美国纳税人资助昂贵和不可靠的政策,”特朗普在一份声明中写道否决信于12月30日送交国会。“结束纳税人施舍的巨大成本,恢复财政健康,对经济增长和国家财政健康至关重要。”
特朗普否决支持科罗拉多项目的两党法案之际,与该州一些政治领导人的关系紧张。
Boebert无视特朗普政府,签署了爱泼斯坦出院请愿书,迫使就迫使DOJ公布文件的措施进行投票。这条管道将会为伯特区.
在周四否决推翻投票失败后,Boebert告诉记者,“我对今天的投票结果明显感到失望。做出的承诺应该兑现。我在这里的工作还没有完成。敬请关注。"
关于佛罗里达州的措施,特朗普在否决信中说:“尽管寻求联邦政府的资助和特殊待遇,但Miccosukee部落一直在积极寻求阻挠合理的移民政策,这些政策是美国人民在我当选时果断投票支持的,”特朗普在否决信中写道。“我的政府致力于防止美国纳税人为特殊利益项目提供资金,特别是那些与我的政府将暴力犯罪的非法外国人驱逐出境的政策不一致的项目。”
Miccosukee部落是反对在大沼泽地建造所谓的“鳄鱼阿卡特兹”移民拘留设施。
House falls short of overriding 2 Trump vetoes of bipartisan bills, including Colorado water project
The House on Thursday failed to override two of President Donald Trump’s vetoes of GOP-backed bills that passed unanimously in the House and Senate, falling short of the necessary two-thirds majority on either vote.
A veto override for The Miccosukee Reserved Area Amendments Act failed by a vote of 236-188. The legislation would have expanded the Miccosukee Tribe’s reserved area in the Florida Everglades related to flood control.
Two dozen Republicans, however, voted in favor to override the veto -- a rare rebuke of their own president.
A veto override also failed for The Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act by a vote of 248-177 with 1 voting present. The legislation would have provided clean water to rural parts of Colorado and was sponsored by that state’s hardline Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert. In that vote, 35 Republicans voted to override the veto of that bill.
Both of the non-controversial measures passed the House and Senate previously with unanimous support.
The Senate would have needed a two-thirds majority to overturn the vetoes.
Trump vetoed the bills -- the first of his second term -- in late December.
"Enough is enough. My administration is committed to preventing American taxpayers from funding expensive and unreliable policies," Trump wrote in aveto lettersent to Congress on Dec. 30. "Ending the massive cost of taxpayer handouts and restoring fiscal sanity is vital to economic growth and the fiscal health of the nation."
Trump’s veto of the bipartisan bill supporting the Colorado project came amid a fractious relationship with some of the state's political leaders.
Boebert had defied the Trump administration by signing onto the Epstein discharge petition that forced a vote on a measure to compel the DOJ to release the files. The pipeline would provide water to residents ofBoebert's district.
After the failed veto override vote Thursday, Boebert told reporters, "I’m obviously disappointed by the outcome of today’s vote. Promises made should be kept.My work here isn’t finished. Stay tuned."
Regarding the Florida measure, Trump said in the veto letter: "[D]espite seeking funding and special treatment from the Federal Government, the Miccosukee Tribe has actively sought to obstruct reasonable immigration policies that the American people decisively voted for when I was elected," Trump wrote in his veto. "My Administration is committed to preventing American taxpayers from funding projects for special interests, especially those that are unaligned with my Administration’s policy of removing violent criminal illegal aliens from the country."
The Miccosukee tribe was part of theoppositionto the construction of the so-called "Alligator Alcatraz" migrant detention facility in the Everglades.
