WASHINGTON, D.C. (NEXSTAR) -- A bill with bipartisan support, but vetoed by Trump, failed to cross the 2/3 majority threshold in the House of Representatives on Thursday to override the president. The bill had such little opposition it had previously passed both the House and Senate without a recorded vote. But in December, Trump vetoed it, taking issue with the project's "massive cost" and the terms of repayment. "It wasn't that great of a bill. And it was something that the White House, who has to sign off on the bills, was against," said Rep. Dan Meuser (R-Penn.), who did not vote to override the veto. The bill would've lowered interest rates and eased repayment terms for a pipeline project to bring fresh, clean water to Colorado communities. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) sponsored the bill. The entire Colorado delegation voted to overturn the President's veto, including the state's four Republicans in Congress. But the House was about 30 shy of the votes needed to override the veto. "Look, we've got to work together on an overall plan," said Meuser. "I'm not going to fight on things that are not in the mainstream of things of what matters most." Boebert said she would continue to support the initiative. "I think a lot of colleagues said that yesterday. We had the vote. The vote failed," Boebert said. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), a frequent critic of President Trump's, said he thought Republican members of Congress were intimidated. "I do think there was some bully-pulpit intimidation going there," Massie said. "The veto override for the water project in Colorado got kind of close and I think if there hadn't been this sort of inherent threat, that that one would have prevailed." On Thursday, the same day as the veto override vote in the House, five Republican Senators joined Democrats to try to limit President Trump's ability to conduct further attacks on Venezuela. Those Republicans "should never be elected to office again," President Trump said.
