Clinton's Veto Stands

NPR's Brian Naylor reports on the failure of House Republicans to override President Clinton's veto of the bill that would have completely repealed the estate tax. They fell 14 votes short of the two-thirds majority needed for an override. Thirteen Democrats who previously had voted for the bill, voted to sustain the President's veto.
