RE: If it does get vetoed, what steps can the house take to over ride the veto?

____________________________________________________________________________

As per our Constitution, Congress can override a presidential veto by having a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and Senate, thus enacting the bill into law despite the president’s veto.

Unfortunately, we don’t have the numbers to achieve that at this time.

OK....I wasn’t sure if this had to go through the Senate or not. But....could not the Senate cut off all funding for the NLRB?
