Farm Bill Update: Congress Overrides Bush Veto

May 23, 2008

From a May 22, 2008, press release from the House Agricultural Committee:

Following veto override votes of 316-108 in the House and 82-13 in the Senate, the Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008 has been enacted into law…
The Food, Conservation and Energy Act makes historic new investments in food, farm and conservation programs that are priorities for all Americans, which is why a broad, bipartisan coalition voted overwhelmingly to pass this bill.
