Bush's dusty veto pen may soon get a workout

Bush signing veto

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Bush has vetoed just one bill in nearly six years in office. That soon may change.

As newly empowered Democrats forge ahead with their own agenda, some items may make it to his desk as prime candidates for veto.

One might be a recycled version of the stem-cell funding bill that drew Bush’s lone veto last July. Other possibilities include measures that would raise the minimum wage without offsetting tax breaks for businesses, fully put in place the September 11 commission’s recommendations and curb oil-industry subsidies.
