There’s not enough time left in this Congress for them to vote to overide the veto. “Pocket veto, the killing of legislation by a chief executive through a failure to act within a specified period following the adjournment of the legislature. In the United States, if a bill sent to the president is not signed within 10 days and Congress has adjourned during that period, the bill is pocket vetoed.”

11th VA says if Rand can delay passage of this bill beyond a certain date and if Trump veto’s it they can’t override even if they have the numbers.

The new Congress will have to take it up.

I’m no expert on this...
