Fox is reporting that the Senate will vote on the House bill then the White House will “waive” the part of the bill they don’t like or agree with.

What, Hussein by "executive order" will decide to give the subsidies back? When did that giant jackass get the power to write legislation?

That is essentially a line item veto which was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court back in 1998.

I'll take a wild guess and say that he will "waive" the omission of pro-union changes via the NLRB.

Oh, good Lord! Why not just destroy all our cropland and call us North Korea! Might as well admit we have a dictator wannabe in the White house.

That is a Constitutional impossiblity. There is no line item veto. The “white house” can’t do this, and neither can the present...dent.

This is not about 74000 FAA workers either, as they try to state. This would be perhaps an aggregate of federal construction project union workers (airports of dubious importance as well as some major ones).
