US President Donald Trump has vetoed a $740bn defence spending bill that passed Congress this month.
Trump has objected to provisions that limit troop withdrawals from Afghanistan and Europe and remove Confederate leaders names from military bases.
He also wanted it to repeal a liability shield for social media companies.
Lawmakers passed the measure with an overwhelming majority and could override the president s rejection.
Bills passed by Congress need a president s signature to become law. On rare occasions, a president may choose to veto - or reject - legislation because of some policy disagreement.
President Donald Trump on Wednesday vetoed the sweeping defense bill that both chambers of Congress recently passed by veto-proof majorities, setting up a possible veto override vote that could pit members of his own party against him.
reid and made it to the president s desk, he will veto it. that point means 22 senate democrats to overcome the vetoed. it s never going to happen. yes, there is no more noble goal than funding obamacare but if you have to do it smarted and in a way you can win. that is why some republicans is advocating, to use better leverage or something to extract some concessions or continue to let this bill crack up and then see what you get. paul: i ve talked to some of the senators and activists who are behind this. they say, republicans have to be shown to be fighting for something because if they don t, if they don t really at least make the effort here, then it s going to demoralize the base and going to hurt the republican party in 2014. i am very sympathetic wick that point of view. i understand their desire to fight back. there should be more of that.
