United States House of Representatives debated whether to override President Bill Clinton’s veto of H.R. 1833, a bill which would ban a certain type of abortion procedure, which is usually performed late in pregnancy, except to protect the life of the mother. In this portion of the debate, members debated whether to release the bill from the relevant committee so that members could then debate and vote on a veto override. Members later voted to override the president’s veto of the measure by a 285 to 137 vote. close
